Reviews
Great quiet lake located in South Eastern Ohio…known for its Crappie and Bass however the occasional muskellunge and bowfin are landed in the boat during an outing at Jackson Lake.
There’s numerous stumps and lay downs throughout the lake however the best overall structure would be the Lily pad fields. Spinnerbaits and Buzzbaits along with other top water type baits are essential at this lake.
10 hp limit, but you can use and put you big motor boats on the lake but you are utilizing the TROLLING MOTOR ONLY at this point…just be careful crossing under the bridge, you just might have to remove your front seat from its position.
Beautiful water even after all the storms. New boat ramp.
Jackson Lake is so beautiful and peaceful while at the same time truck or treat was taking place every weekend in October. It was an amazing time handing out candy and decorating for the contest. If you are given the chance to go you should definitely do it.
Nice lake to visit from time to time. Fishing from the shore sometimes can be a challenge with all the growth.
Nice little campground, all sites have electric. Can fill up your RV water tank and hias dump station. Only has vault toilets, no showers. We read the description prior to going and understood this before we got there.
