The place

Fourche Lake Recreation Area is located on the 44-acre Fourche Lake, a beautiful place to be outside. The first thing you see as you enter the site is the boat launch and boat launch parking. If you drive a little further you pass some campsites. At the very end there is a loop where the toilet is, in the day use area. The campground is surrounded by a oak, pine, and hickory forest. The campsites are spaced out among the trees, to give some privacy.
