Hunting
Enid Lake provides excellent hunting opportunities with over 17,000 acres of managed forest lands. Throughout the fall, hunters spend countless hours scouting and hunting the abundance of wildlife that includes deer, squirrel, rabbit, turkey and duck. Through partnerships and volunteer efforts, Enid Lake manages two premier wildlife management areas - Springdale Wildlife Management Area and Dean Hill Wildlife Management Area at "Wildcat Brake". These areas encompass more than 3,700 acres of unique habitat and prime hunting opportunities.
