The Indian Creek Reservoir Is A Beautiful Reservoir Nestled In The Louisiana Forests

The Alexander State Forest is 8,000 acres of beautiful bottomland hardwoods and various pine trees that’s an ideal destination for the outdoor explorer. And as an added bonus, it’s located in central Louisiana so it’s an easy road trip from any corner of the state. Tucked away within the forest is a massive 2,600-acre reservoir that’s the perfect spot for a day of fun in the sun.

The Indian Creek Reservoir is located in Rapides Parish, just outside Woodworth.

Sink your toes in the sand in between splashing around!
You can even rent a canoe or bring your own to explore the lake from a different perspective.

Largemouth bass, black crappie, and striped bass are just a few of the potential catches of the day.
In between beach time and boat time, find some quiet time and sit for a spell on one of the benches to appreciate the view.
