1360 acre Dierks Lake, like DeQueen Lake and Gillham Lake, is a small, out-of-the-way Corps of Engineers lake in southwest Arkansas that offers plenty of peace and quiet. Known as a great bass and crappie fishery, Dierks Lake is a good place to beat the crowds. The newest Corps lake in Arkansas, Dierks Lake was finished in 1975 as an impoundment of the Saline River. Dierks Lake has over 100 campsites available for campers. Most sites are equipped with water and electricity. Seasons vary for each campground generally running from spring to fall.
