About Collins Lake Recreation Area

Collins Lake Recreation Area stretches down 12 miles of shoreline around a 1,600-acre lake, offering visitors plenty of recreational activities to enjoy on land and water. Staying for the day, part-time captains can rent boats or launch their own, swim and play at the sandy beach, and fish for trout, bass, bluegill, and catfish. Those aiming to extend their stay can sidle up to RV hookups, rent one of the many campgrounds, or opt for the rustic comfort of on-site cabins, which are available in a variety of sizes to suit families big, small, or gilled.
