Spring Creek Recreation Area
Sitting on the shores of beautiful Lake Oahe, Spring Creek is a water-lover's paradise. The lake has more than 2,000 miles of shoreline and its clear waters are ideal for boating, sailing, fishing, water skiing and diving. Campers, history buffs, mountain bikers, and hikers will find new adventures in this rugged land first explored by Lewis and Clark. The recreation area offers a marina and convenience store, as well as an on-site restaurant run by the park's concessionaire.
Whether you are looking to enjoy one of the top fishing destinations in the region, a relaxing family vacation, a place to ride the waves, or just to enjoy time with your family and friends for a day trip, there is no better place to live your legacy than at Spring Creek on Lake Oahe.
