Additional Local Information

Thank you for your interest in beautiful Lake Tawakoni, we hope you enjoy your stay. While you are here, we hope you take the time to walk our nature trail, or go fishing on one of our several piers ... fishing this year has been wonderful. The fish being caught can weigh up to 70 pounds each.

If you are not up for the outdoors, visit Canton's First Monday Trade Days - a flea market occurring the weekend of the first Monday of every month. May you find good fortune in all of your travels and we look forward to seeing you soon!
