The fifth largest man-made reservoir in the United States. Private facilities range from fish camps, with marinas and primitive camping, to highly developed lodge and motel type facilities. There are boat ramps at major recreation areas and other spots on the reservoir, giving boaters access points to the lake. Toledo Bend Reservoir is a nationally known bass fishing lake, and numerous tournaments are held here each year. A good access point to the lake from Hemphill is at Indian Mounds Recreation Area, which is 18 minutes east on Farm Road 83 and Indian Mounds Road.
