Nevada County, Arkansas
Nevada County sits in southwest Arkansas, with Prescott as its county seat. Prescott is a small city with a historic downtown that preserves its early 20th-century charm.
White Oak Lake State Park is located in the east of the county. It’s perfect for fishing, camping, and hiking opportunities and helps brings the community together, especially in summer.
The county is named after the silver state, reflecting 19th-century hopes for mineral wealth. While those dreams didn’t pan out, the county found its riches in timber and agriculture.
