About This Access Site
Budd Kidd Lake is a 200-acre lake located in Washington County, Arkansas, popular with anglers looking to catch largemouth bass, channel catfish, and bluegill. The boat ramp and dock are situated on the northeast side of the lake, providing easy access for kayakers, canoeists, and small motorized boats.

The concrete boat ramp allows for launching directly into Budd Kidd Creek, which flows into the larger Budd Kidd Lake. This makes the site a convenient access point for exploring the creek and lake by paddle craft. The wooden dock provides a stable platform for loading and unloading gear. Parking is available nearby, though the exact capacity is unclear.

For those seeking a peaceful outdoor experience, Budd Kidd Lake and the surrounding area offer a serene setting with opportunities for bank fishing, wildlife viewing, and relaxation. Paddlers should be aware of the lake's size and prepare accordingly, as conditions can vary. As with any outdoor activity, it's recommended to check local regulations and be mindful of safety considerations before setting out.
