Jordan Lake
About Jordan Lake
Jordan Lake is a quiet destination in Richland County, Louisiana, offering a modest 54-acre water surface that invites visitors looking for a peaceful outdoor experience. Its shallow nature, with a maximum depth of zero feet, means the lake is more of a broad, calm water body rather than a deep fishing spot. The nearby towns of Rayville and Start provide easy access for locals and visitors alike. Surrounded by the natural landscape of Louisiana, Jordan Lake sits near Poverty Point Reservoir State Park, adding to the area's scenic charm. This lake’s size and depth create a gentle environment perfect for those who appreciate a calm and accessible water setting without the complexity of deep-water fishing challenges.
