Laurel Hill Lake is a 325-acre impoundment located in Lawrence County, Tennessee, approximately 15 miles west of Lawrenceburg. The lake features two boat access ramps, including a smaller gravel ramp, providing multiple put-in options for paddlers. A permit is required to be on the lake - either a daily lake permit ($6) or annual permit ($48), though Sportsman license and lifetime license holders are exempt.

The lake offers a peaceful paddling environment, as speed boating, personal watercraft, water skiing, and swimming are prohibited. Only fishing boats and vessels used for hunting during designated seasons are allowed. The lake is open from 30 minutes before sunrise until 30 minutes after sunset.

Facilities include picnic areas, restrooms, a fishing pier, and primitive camping areas. A bait shop and concession building near the lake provide basic amenities. One embayment is designated as a youth-only fishing area.

Wildlife viewing opportunities are abundant, particularly for birdwatchers. Common Loons, Mallards, Gadwall, Wood Ducks, and Bufflehead can be seen during winter months. Great Blue Herons, Eastern Bluebirds, and Belted Kingfishers are year-round residents.

The lake is situated within the larger 14,952-acre Laurel Hill Wildlife Management Area, which features mature hardwood forests and the Little Buffalo River. The surrounding landscape includes managed grasslands and brushy areas, providing diverse scenery for paddlers.

For planning purposes, fall offers comfortable temperatures averaging around 70 degrees Fahrenheit. Boat rentals are available seasonally for $10 per day. A valid TWRA license is required in addition to the lake permit, and alcoholic beverages are prohibited.
