Nothing fancy, just great home cooked food. The service is fast, but you can take your time. Great view of the lake. home made pies.
We visited family at this lake...awesome! Beautiful! We were there on a 76 degree day in February. Such a nice reprieve from winter.
Beautiful country and wonderful lake. I want to live there! Lake wasn't as clear as I had expected. Because its spring fed, I had expected it to be very clear. Wonderful area.
Lake Athens is small - somewhere near 1800 acres but offers a lot of opportunity for fun on the water. It's clear spring-fed waters are usually calm and lend themselves to great fishing as well as water skiing and wake boarding. The lake gets a little crowded on holiday weekends but during the week it is pleasantly quiet. Lake Athens offers one launch ramp at the west end of the lake, near the Texas Freshwater Fisheries. Fuel is available and the Marina (although there isn't one) Restaurant has some of the best fried catfish around.
