Lake Lemon is located in the beautiful rolling hills of south-central Indiana just 10 miles northeast of Bloomington, Indiana. The scenic and tranquil setting attracts boaters and fishermen from as far as Kentucky and northern Indiana. Lake Lemon was built in 1953 to serve as a drinking water reservoir and natural resource venue for the City of Bloomington’s expanding population. Lake Lemon was used as the primary drinking water source for the City of Bloomington until the late 1960’s. The reservoir currently serves as Bloomington’s back up water supply.
Lake Lemon is the 11th largest lake and 7th largest public reservoir in Indiana with a size of 1,650 acres, 24 miles of shoreline, and an average depth of 9.7 feet. The Lake 
Lemon watershed drains approximately 70 square miles of land. In the late 1980’s, due to the financial burden of an unused water supply, the City of Bloomington Utilities began to look for a group interested in managing the reservoir. After strenuous grassroot efforts lead by lake residents Earl Eberle, Larry Ritter, and Bud Howard, in 1995 the Lake Lemon Conservancy District (LLCD) was formed.
The LLCD is a very active organization, including seven elected volunteer directors comprised of Lake Lemon landowners. Despite its young age, the LLCD has accomplished a myriad of important tasks. Nuisance wildlife and vegetation are monitored and controlled on an ongoing basis. Nutrient and water quality levels are measured on a weekly and annual basis to ensure the highest degree of water quality and to minimize health risks associated with public bodies of water.Â
Noted in Indiana Game & Fish magazine as one of Indiana’s top bass fisheries, Lake Lemon is an ideal spot for the casual recreation seeker and top fishermen alike. Get out, explore, and enjoy the beauty of Lake Lemon!
