Important Notices for this Waterbody

Notice
Channel Catfish Stocking Discontinued Until Further Notice

Channel catfish stockings have been discontinued until further notice. Existing channel catfish populations remain in the waterbody, but anglers should expect lower catch rates over time due to the absence of continued stocking efforts.

This Fairfax County Park Authority lake has a number of facilities, including a swimming pool, campground, and boat rentals. There is no boat ramp, but canoes can be carried in and launched. The 28-acre lake has bluegills, largemouth bass, channel catfish and crappies.
