Power boaters on Tuttle Creek Lake will enjoy the large body of the lake on calm days for water skiing and pleasure boating. Canoeists and kayakers will find River Pond below the dam a perfect place for paddling. The state park offers canoe, kayak, and paddleboat rentals.
Bald eagles, white-tailed deer, Canada geese, wild turkeys, crappie, channel catfish and other wildlife can be found at Tuttle Creek. The lake's fish and wildlife resources provide sightseers, anglers and hunters ample opportunities for their sports.
The lake also boasts miles of hiking, biking, off-road vehicle and equestrian trails. The Blue River Trail, a one mile long loop in Outlet Park, provides excellent views of wildlife in all seasons. Click here to learn about additional trails around the lake.
