RECREATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES:

Chestnut Creek is unique in that it is a property that can truly be utilized 365 days a year. The most obvious is the robust fishing on the lake for crappie, bass, bream, and even some catfish. It is very rare to have such a large, private fishing lake.

If you are a big game hunter, you will have ample opportunities to harvest whitetail deer and wild turkeys. With a mix of pines and hardwoods, the forest provides ample cover for wildlife. There are also occasional waterfowl such as Canada geese and early-season teal that favor the shallow areas of the north end of the lake.

An overlooked activity is a quick hike through the woods around the lake. Although using an ATV to get from one end of the property to another is an obvious choice, walking the trails around the lake provides a very enjoyable alternative.
