For centuries, the raging Brazos River has cut its way through the Palo Pinto Mountains. In the 1940’s the river was dammed up to form a huge lake that was nestled within the dramatic North Texas Hill Country. The natural views are absolutely spectacular! Possum Kingdom Lake is one of the clearest lakes in all of Texas and we have been the only USA stop for the Red Bull Cliff Diving Series in the entire USA! We are a favorite spot for inland scuba diving and all types of boating. Year around activities include fishing, camping, hiking, golf, mountain bikes and horseback riding. Possum Kingdom Lake is famous for family reunions and the numerous Boy Scout and YMCA camps. Our lake is only a short drive from Dallas, / Ft. Worth, Wichita Falls, Abilene and Midland / Odessa, Texas.
