Nearby Lake and Stream

Owsley Lake is within easy walking distance of the property. Its watershed is from the nearby hills, which have no industrial point-source pollution and virtually no animal agriculture that might reduce the purity of the lake's waters. Owsley Fork (creek) runs from the reservoir past the property on the east side.

Owsley Lake

Because Owsley Lake serves as the main reservoir for Berea's water supply, usage restrictions are designed to keep the water clean. Powerboats and swimming are not allowed, but fishing (from the shoreline or non-fueled boats) and canoeing are allowed. The north-side access to the lake features a picnic area; the south-side access has a boat ramp.

Owsley Fork

Owsley Fork's rocky banks add to the view from the back yard—and its waters provide another level of water security.
