No, there are no set dimensions of an acre. It is a measure of area and can have any dimensions -- just as long as the total area is 4840 square yards. So, it could be a rectangle 1 yard by 4840 yards or 2 yards by 2420. Or it could be a circle, a pentagon, or just a random shape.

Acre (measurement), a traditional English land measure equal to 0.4 hectares, or 4,047 square meters (4,840 square yards). Originally meaning a field, it was the area that a pair of oxen could plow in a day. By the late 1200s, English law standardized the acre for official use, although local variations in Ireland, Scotland, and some English counties continued.

An acre is the measurement of area, not length.
It is equal to 43560 square feet or 4840 square yards. The most standard shape for an acre is 660 feet by 66 feet. To find the linear measurements of other rectangular acres, just divide 43,560 by the number of feet you want on one side.
A square-shaped acre would then be about 208.7 by 208.7 feet (because 208.7 x 208.7 = ~43,560).

It's 43560 square feet, so it would be 208.710326 feet on a side if it was square.
