Lost Corner is an unincorporated community in Pope County, Arkansas, United States.[1] The community changed its name from Okay to avoid confusion with a community in Howard County with the same name.[2] Lost Corner was selected because of the backwoods location of the community.[3]
Lost Corner consists of a few farms in Pope County northeast of Hector (Pope County) and is near the Van Buren County line. It is located on a ridge between the south fork of the Little Red River to the east and the Illinois Bayou to the west.[4]
