Our Take
What makes Point Cedar special
Point Cedar sits on the shores of DeGray Lake in the rolling foothills of the Ouachita Mountains, offering one of Arkansas's finest combinations of lakeside camping and world-class fishing. The lake is renowned for its hybrid striped bass fishery — anglers regularly pull trophy-sized fish here, and the on-site boat ramp makes launching effortless. Beyond fishing, DeGray's clear waters are perfect for skiing, kayaking, and swimming through the long Southern summer. The campground's position gives you easy access to both water recreation and the wooded hillsides that frame the lake. Spring and fall deliver the most comfortable weather and the best bite, though summer weekends bring a lively atmosphere. Bring your own shade structure for the hotter months, and arrive early on holiday weekends to claim a prime waterfront spot. Point Cedar is ideal for fishing families, water sports enthusiasts, and anyone looking for an affordable lake getaway that punches well above its weight in natural beauty.
