Pine Creek Lake
Pine Creek Dam is located on Little River, approximately
eight miles north of Valiant in McCurtain County, Oklahoma. The
lake extends into Choctaw and Pushmataha Counties.
Opportunities for sightseers and nature lovers are many at Pine
Creek. The forest resources of the project are managed to improve
the scenic quality of the park areas and adjoining land and create
additional interest in trails for hiking, horseback riding, and
exploration.
The high ratio of shoreline length to water area
at Pine Creek Lake is conducive to good fish production. Principal
fish species include crappie, white bass, largemouth bass, channel
catfish, flathead catfish, and various sunfish.
For camping and picnicking enthusiasts, developed
parks along the lake shoreline offer boat launching ramps, fireplaces,
picnic tables, campsites, sanitary facilities, and parking areas.
