Hunting Creek Lake at adjacent Cunningham Falls State Park

Some areas adjacent to streams support small intermittent ponds, but these have a tendency to disappear during drought conditions. Adjacent to the park is Hunting Creek Lake. Managed by Cunningham Falls State Park , the 75 acre man-made lake is a popular place for swimming, boating, and fishing.
