Fostoria Reservoir, also known as Lake LeComte (Reservoir #5), is a 128-acre upground reservoir located approximately 2.5 miles southwest of Fostoria, Ohio. Built in 1958 and named for Charles E. Lecomte, the first Fostoria airman killed in WWII, the reservoir has an average depth of 28 feet and obtains its water by pumping from the East Branch Portage River.

The primary boat access is via a concrete boat ramp on the northwest corner of the reservoir off Hancock County Road 23, approximately 3 miles north of State Route 224. The facility includes handicapped-accessible parking near the boat ramp. A 1.8-mile stone walking trail surrounds the reservoir.

Motorized boats are permitted with a 9.9 horsepower limit. During summer months, water temperatures can reach into the 80s Fahrenheit, with documented temperatures of 84 degrees in August. The reservoir features relatively open water with minimal shoreline development or natural features. The landscape is characterized by earthen dikes and limestone-covered shorelines designed to prevent erosion.

The reservoir tends to experience significant wave action, which paddlers should be prepared for. The surrounding area is primarily farmland and woods, offering little protection from wind. A notable feature is the absence of aquatic vegetation or underwater structure, creating an environment more suited to open-water paddling than exploration.

Veterans Memorial Reservoir (Reservoir #6), a 160-acre body of water, lies immediately north of Lake LeComte and can be accessed via a boat ramp on the northern edge off Washington Township Road 218. This connected reservoir system features a peninsula with prominent electric towers, providing one of the few notable landmarks for navigation.

Waterfowl hunting is permitted with appropriate permits obtained from the Fostoria Municipal Building. The reservoirs serve as part of Fostoria's municipal water supply system, highlighting their primary role as utility infrastructure rather than recreational facilities.
