General-
Town evolved from fishing camps and resort
operators around scenic Caddo Lake in Harrison County and incorporated in
1961. The site is near Uncertain Landing, so named because steamboat
captains in earlier days often had troubles mooring their vessels. It was also
the site of an old hunting, fishing, and boating society called the Uncertain
Club, which existed in the early 1900s. Today, the town still relies on the
lake's tourism attractions for its livelihood. The town limits are irregular in
shape to include most of the resort areas along the shores of Caddo
Lake.

tribe quite advanced in civilization. Camping areas, trailer sites, cabins,
fishing, swimming, boating, hiking, nature trails and interpretive center. West
