How Canyon Lake is different
Unlike the smaller river lakes downstream, Canyon Lake was built for flood control and water supply, so its level rises and falls with rain and drought. If you are looking near the shoreline, ask how far the water is from the property at different lake levels.
The Corps of Engineers maintains public parks around the lake for camping, swimming and boating, and the Canyon Lake Gorge below the spillway was uncovered by the 2002 flood.
