Lake Lure

Lake Lure is a freshwater lake in Osceola County that spans approximately 800 acres with depths reaching up to 30 feet (9 meters). The water connects with several small streams in the region and forms a water system central to the local landscape.

The lake became a central hub for lumber operations in the early 1900s when the timber industry drove regional development. As logging declined, it gradually transformed into a recreational area serving local and visiting communities.

The lake serves as a gathering place where local communities host fishing competitions and seasonal celebrations throughout the year. These events connect residents from across the county and shape daily leisure activities.

Multiple public access points around the lake offer boat launches, parking areas, and designated swimming zones for year-round use. The various entry spots are spread out, so it is worth exploring to find the location that best suits your planned activities.

The waters support populations of bass, bluegill, and northern pike that attract fishing enthusiasts from across the region. These fish species mean that anglers return across different seasons based on what species are most active.
