Other nearby attractions include Hot Springs National Park and the Lake Ouachita Vista Trail, which offers scenic hiking opportunities along the lake's southern shore.

While specific details on hours of operation or fees are not available, the Lena Area Cove boat ramp provides a convenient access point for paddlers, anglers, and boaters to enjoy the natural beauty of Lake Ouachita and the surrounding region. Visitors should plan accordingly and exercise caution when launching and navigating the lake.
