About Laurel River Lake
Laurel River Lake is located on [London Ranger District](http://www.fs.usda.gov/detail/dbnf/?cid=FSBDEV3_032651) and features 5,600 acres of clear, deep water and nearly 200 miles of tree-lined shore. The quiet coves and cliff-lined shores offer relaxation and quiet reflection, as well as boating, fishing, skiing and scuba diving in one of the deepest and cleanest lakes in Kentucky. Fishing for black bass, rainbow trout, walleye, crappie, blue gill and catfish is excellent. Night fishing for trout is also popular during the summer months. The U.S. Forest Service administers the lake and surrounding shoreline. The [U.S. Army Corps of Engineers](http://www.lrn.usace.army.mil/Locations/Lakes/LaurelRiverLake.aspx) oversees the operation of the lake's dam and nearby recreation facilities, including a picnic area and a swimming beach at the spillway.
