Sunnyside Plantation was a cotton plantation in the Arkansas Delta near Lake Village in Chicot County, established around 1820 to 1830 and worked out by 1945. It passed through a series of owners, including Elisha Worthington and Austin Corbin, whose Corbin House stood as the plantation's mansion, and its workforce over time included enslaved people, convict laborers, Italian immigrants held under conditions of peonage, and sharecroppers. The plantation drew federal attention in the early 1900s for allegations of debt peonage involving its Italian laborers. Little of the property survives today beyond a historical marker.
