The Spring Lake Bridge is a historic bridge in the eastern part of Ozark-St. Francis National Forest, carrying Highway 35 across an inlet of Spring Lake known as Bob Barnes Branch, in the Spring Lake Recreation Area. It is a two-span closed-spandrel stone arch bridge with a total length of 36 feet (11 m). Each arch is 10 feet (3.0 m) long and 6 feet (1.8 m) high. Built in 1936 with federal funding, it is one of the state's finest examples of a stone arch bridge.[2]

The bridge was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.[1]
