Bismarck is an unincorporated community between Hot Springs and Caddo Valley on State HWY 7 and 84 in Hot Spring County, Arkansas, United States. Bismarck is an unincorporated rural area. In 2002 the local clinic was closed. As a result, the state of Arkansas declared it an MUA (Medically Underserved Area) and BCHC, Inc. was formed to bring health care to the Bismarck area. Bismarck has two restaurants: DJ's Drive In and Pizza Shack. There are also two markets: the BCM (Bismarck Community Market), and the Dollar General. Bismarck has three gas stations located on State Highways 7 and 84. The post office, two banks, a storage facility, laundromat, antique stores, a flower shop and the Elementary, Middle, and High schools are all within one block of the main intersection. Bismarck is located near DeGray Lake, a beautiful tourist attraction that has several designated camping areas.
