About Briarcliff

Briarcliff is a small second-class city in Baxter County, Arkansas, with just a few hundred residents. The community began as a retirement area near Lake Norfork after the completion of Norfork Dam, and that lake-country origin still matters. Students are in the Norfork School District and graduate from Norfork High School. Briarcliff is residential and residential, best understood as a small Ozark lake-area community rather than a traditional town with a large downtown.
