On the eastern shore of one of the country's largest man-made reservoirs, clean, cool waters gently touch the edges of North Toledo Bend State Park. The Toledo Bend Reservoir provides park visitors the opportunity for a wide variety of water-related activities in a pleasant environment. More than 900 acres of pine-filled lands are available for camping, picnicking, hiking, and relaxing in the heart of nature. Whether you're picnicking for an afternoon, camping overnight, or roughing it in the woods for several days, North Toledo Bend is the perfect destination.

The Toledo Bend Reservoir covers approximately 185,000 acres, includes 1,200 miles of shoreline, and is contained by a dam completed in 1969. This reservoir project was jointly developed by Texas and Louisiana for the purposes of water supply, electricity generation, and recreation. Water-oriented recreation facilities, both public and private, are found all along the lakeshores of both states.
