Arkabutla Lake, in North Mississippi, is a little-known jewel-of-a-nature destination. Located just 30-45 minutes South of Memphis, TN, Arkabutla lake is often overlooked as a quick get-away and relaxing break! Afterward, head into Hernando, MS for lovely dining!
I have only been to Arkabutla lake a few times. My husband really enjoys fishing there. I love to sit back a listen to the sound of the water. I’ve been there during really hot summer days and the water level was so low, it was weird. It really is a nice lake and a good place to relax and enjoy nature.

I grew up in Arkansas and am not familiar with much of Mississippi’s nature offerings, but my parents just moved within fifteen miles of Arkabutla. I’m looking forward to exploring with my daughter and nieces and nephews this summer.

I think you will love it! Not very commercialized and quite remote. Wish there was a waterfront restaurant…

Nature is definitley a brain reliever. I believe the world should spend more time outside with family and friends. Creating less time for them to argue political matters on social media. This is including myself!!

My husband and I love to drive the kids out to Arkabutla. We love to be near the water and the kids will play on the playground. Last time we went people were flying model airplanes. We sat and watched they for a long time.

I used to go hiking with my family at Arkabutla, perhaps after the water goes back down it’s time to revisit.

Yes, hike with a buddy. Some of the trails are rather remote.
