Lake Lou Yaeger is a reservoir created by damming the Shoal Creek. It was built for flood control purposes and recreational activities & sport fishing. Unlike other lakes, Lake Lou Yaeger does not impose any speed or power limit - hence, it is a popular spot amongst boaters. The shore area of the lake features excursion territories, play areas, hiking trails, bike trails, campgrounds, and steed trails.
