*** Forecast - Our water temperature forecast
Actual nearshore water temperatures may fluctuate by several degrees from the reported values, especially following heavy rainfall or extended periods of strong winds. Certain wind patterns can cause colder, deeper waters to rise and replace the sun-warmed surface water, leading to noticeable variations.
Our forecast is based on a proprietary mathematical model that considers real-time water temperature changes, historical trends, key weather patterns, wind strength and direction, and air temperature specific to each region. Additionally, we incorporate data from other resorts to enhance accuracy.

Location & Local Information
Beaver Fork Lake, a small reservoir near Conway in Arkansas, experiences water temperatures consistent with the Central Arkansas climate, with hot summers and cool winters. In the cooler winter months, the surface water temperature typically ranges from the 40s to low 50s F (4∘C to 13∘C). During the peak summer season, the lake warms significantly, with surface temperatures often reaching a very comfortable and warm range for swimming, generally peaking between 75∘F and 85∘F (24∘C to 29∘C).
Swimming is generally permitted in Beaver Fork Lake; however, it is important to note that the lake does not feature any designated or supervised public swimming beaches with lifeguards. While the lake is used for recreational activities like fishing and paddling, the lack of official swimming infrastructure means that all swimming is undertaken strictly at one's own risk. Users should exercise caution due to the presence of boat ramps, fishing lines, and sudden depth changes. For supervised swimming, local residents typically utilize the nearby municipal pools or larger state park lakes which have established beach areas.
