2011 Map of Hot Springs South

About this map

Lake Hamilton dominates the landscape south of the city, where the Ouachita River is harnessed by Carpenter Dam. This area reveals a transition from the urban density of Hot Springs to the intricate finger-like bays and peninsulas of the reservoir, such as Labella Bay and Hosta Bay. The map is particularly rich in genealogical data, locating numerous burial grounds including the Jewish Rest Cemetery, Calvary Cemetery, and Greenwood Cemetery clustered in the northern hills near Music Mountain. Cultural and community infrastructure is well-defined, from the Oaklawn Racetrack and Garland County Fairgrounds to the aviation hub at Memorial Field. The southern reaches are defined by a network of creeks like Mount Carmel Creek and Fourche a Loupe Creek, showing the residential expansion around the water’s edge.
