You know, that may be common for Corps lakes. Here Lake Grapevine is the normal usage but I think it is actually Grapevine Lake, too.

Naming of things around there is kinda odd sometimes. Driving up from the Interstate you go through Clark, Hot Springs and Garland counties. Hot Springs is in Garland County, and I think the lake straddles all three. That is why they have a hard time figuring out which department has jurisdiction when there is an accident so they normally roll units from all three until an exact location is determined. The deputy we talked to is out of Hot Springs County, and the Sheriff’s Office is in Malvern, about 30 miles away, while the cities of Hot Springs and Arkadelphia are 10-15 miles.
