Texas Lakes - Lake Texoma is considered to be the 10th largest lake in the United States. Offers 89,000 acres of water, over 500 miles of shoreline, sandy beaches, islands and is deep enough to accomodate large yachts.
Lake Texoma is located approximately 1 hour north of Dallas (only 45 minutes from cities such as McKinney or Frisco).
Lake Texoma is the top fishing lake, and is one of the most popular vacation destinations in the Southwestern United States. The Dallas Morning News has reported that Lake Texoma is the Number 1 lake in all of Texas.
You will find plenty to do when visiting Lake Texoma.
There are several local restaurants where you can sit back, grab a bite to eat and maybe have a cocktail:

Lanie....I lived in Austin for two years and you are right about the beautiful lakes. Have a great day!
Wow, Laine - this is an awesome post jam-packed with information! Great job - I am sure it took quite a bit of time compiling it all.
Leesa, it did take some work -- and I was really proud of this post...thought it would be very helpful to people coming into the area! And Rob, I too think Texas has some of the best lakes- of course I'm very partial to Lake Texoma! :-)
