Flat Rock Beach
11commentsThis riverbank beach has long been a clothing optional location. As the name suggests, this shallow river has large flat rock which heat in the sun and are great for sunbathing. When you arrive, walk along the river until the large rocks appear on the north side, crossing over at some shallow point. The nude beach is popular with college students from relatively liberal (by Arkansas standards) Fayetteville and gay men. The site is located on private land and you will see 'no trespassing' signs which the owner uses to discourage loud partiers, but is otherwise tolerant of nude sun bathers. Please pack out any trash.
- Best time
- Days during warmer months.
- Crowd
- Mixed but many gays.

march 2008 rains were heavy and washed out the ford over the white river and washed out the lower end of County Road 6041 about a half mile from the river. it even washed out the gate at the first meadow on the road. just be real careful tryin' to get in here until they fix the road.
