Overview

Beard's Bluff is located 13 miles east of Ashdown on State Highway 32. It is a bird watcher's paradise with a birding overlook and access to the best sunset viewing on the lake.

Recreation

The campground offers open water access to the lake and Little River. The area is made navigable by boat lanes which mark the river and other designated waterways through the lake. Outside of these channels is submerged timber and aquatic vegetation that appeal to anglers and duck hunters alike. Millwood Lake is home to over 300 species of birds including the American Bald Eagle and Great White Pelicans, many of which can be found in the Beard's Bluff area.

The facility also offers one centrally located sewage dump station. Campsites are equipped with picnic tables, grills, fire rings, 30/50 amp electricity, water hydrants, and lantern poles.

Natural Features
