Are you wanting a lake? Heber Springs or Mountain View, and Mtn. View may be more to your liking since Heber is innundated during the summer. If you go out from Mtn. View to Fifty-Six, Arkansas, there is a wonderful swimming hole, or go up toward Blanchard Springs - I think there are several spots to swim up there on the river. Out from Mountain View you can rent some houses that back up to the White River - you can't swim in that area, the current is too fast, but it's a short drive to Fifty-Six, maybe 8 miles or so? Those would be my two picks! If you have the means to rent a houseboat on Greers Ferry in Heber for the day, there are a ton of little coves where you can get lost...Enjoy!
