About Perry County Community Lake
Perry County Community Lake is located about two miles west of Perryville and can be accessed from Route T and from the I-55 west outer road. From Perryville, take Route T west 1.50 miles, then County Road 700 southwest to the area.

This area is mostly forest with some fields. Facilities/features: boat ramps, picnic area, fishing jetties, and Perry County Community Lake (103 acres).

The Conservation Department, in cooperation with the citizens of Perry County who passed a bond issue to purchase 310 acres from private landowners to create the public area, developed the site and constructed a 103-acre impoundment, which was opened to fishing in 1971. The area now includes two access roads, four parking lots, two boat launching ramps, a fishing access trail for bank anglers, and two small picnic areas. The area also features a disabled-accessible fishing pier, where fish cover structures have been placed to improve fish habitat. Disabled-accessible restrooms are located near the fishing pier.

Boundaries of the area are fenced and signed. Please respect the rights of adjoining landowners. From Perry County Community Lake web site
