Our family has RV camped with other friends in the past, but this trip we decided to bring the boat and stay at the Lodge on the Lake (Beavers Bend). It made for a completely different experience...this lake is beautiful. It has mountains, and islands everywhere. We noticed several bald eagles, deer, and other wildlife while in the boat. The...

I have been going to this lake all my life and will continue, it is by far the prettiest lake I have been to and I have been to a lot. The lake is always calm due to it being tucked away in the moutains. Great for skiing and cliff jumping if your are into that. If you go north... More

Quiet, excluded, scenic, awsome! Be careful on windy days though, the main lake gets VERY CHOPPY. Only one boat dock & it is the marina. Great fishing! Bass, Catfish, Croppie, Stripers, Hybrid (white bass & stripers). Not really for the jet skier. More

The lake area is very nice. It is great for families and caters for campers, RVs and day trippers. Very clean and the rangers are always driving around, doing their job and checking on things making it a safe place to go. The museum at the visitors information center is free and definitely informative and worth a look. More

We love the clear clean water, the size of the lake, and the lack of other people on it. This is definitely our favorite lake in the East Texas/SE Oklahoma area! More

We live within 30 miles of this lake and are continually surprised at the beauty of it each time we go. There are a variety of accommodations, places to eat, outdoor activities which make it perfect for family gatherings, reunions or just a weekend getaway. We have friends who keep a houseboat on the lake and often cruise during the... More

Our first visit after years of being told to go visit. Well, we did and we found it to be all they exclaimed. We enjoyed visiting each place around this lake. Get-a-way Weekend, or family vacation, it's there. RV Camping, cabins, tent camping. they have it all. We will be back. More
