Lake O’ The Pines is a freshwater reservoir on Big Cypress Bayou in east Texas surrounded and shaded by tall pine trees. A night at one of the many campgrounds around Lake O’ The Pines can be spent gazing up at the night sky through the pines. There are many parks around the shoreline of the lake that offer camping, picnicking, boat ramps, and swimming beaches.

Three marinas make it easy to get watercraft into the lake, and there is a boat rental business in Avinger for those without their own boat. Fishermen will appreciate the stock of chain pickerel, white, spotted, and largemouth bass, crappie, and sunfish.
