About this map

Bella Vista and the community of Hiwasse anchor this corner of Northwest Arkansas, characterized by a sophisticated network of recreational lakes and residential expansion. The landscape is defined by major impoundments including Loch Lomond, Lake Windsor, and Lake Avalon, which are fed by several local drainages like Tanyard Creek and Little Sugar Creek. The residential infrastructure shows a clear pattern of planned development, with many street names reflecting Scottish influences, such as Kincardine Dr and Dunkeld Dr.

Genealogists will find several burial grounds across the area, from the Miller Cemetery in the east to Mount Pleasant Cemetery and Daniels Cemetery near the western edge. The Hiwasse Post Office serves as a central landmark for the rural settlement south of Gobblers Knob, while the southern reaches of the map transition into the valley of Spavinaw Creek. This 2011 survey captures the area as it evolved from rural farmland into a prominent residential and leisure destination.
