Lake Corpus Christi State Park is located on Lake Corpus Christi, southwest of Mathis in San Patricio County and is home to a diverse variety of fauna and flora. Constructed by the Civilian Conservation Corps Company 886 in the mid-1930s, the park featured several buildings, including a park residence, a bathhouse, a boat house, and a refectory, which is all that now remains. There is a lookout tower in the park, several bridges, and a variety of landscapes ranging from brushlands, woodlands, and wetlands to the aquatic ecosystem of the lake itself. Lake Corpus Christi State Park is a popular destination for fishing and birdwatching, with several species of both animals calling the park home.
