Lay Lake Information

Look to Lay Lake if you’re considering lake homes for sale in Alabama. Lay Lake is one of the state’s most prized outdoor destinations, as it’s conveniently located only 35 minutes south of Birmingham. It hosts some of the finest fishing and recreation opportunities in the entire state. Whether you’re determined to catch the ultimate record-setting bass, are interested in picking up speed on the open water, or want to surround yourself with the calming sounds of nature, Lay Lake is the place for you!

Four Alabama counties are lucky enough to touch Lay Lake: Shelby, Talladega, Chilton, and Coosa all claim a piece of the 1,200-acre reservoir. And while its shimmering shores attract all kinds of recreation enthusiasts, Lay Lake is especially dear to area anglers. Your line is bound to snatch up everything from catfish to sunfish to crappie, but that’s only a sampling of the prize catches you can look forward to. The lake has garnered the reputation for hosting incredible largemouth and spotted bass fishing. Don’t be surprised if you wrangle up an 18-incher of either variety, since both grow to be quite hefty here. When the shad begin swarming the lake’s banks, it’s time to hunt for spotted and largemouth bass in the tailwater below the Logan Martin Dam—this is also a good place to try for catfish and hybrid striped bass. Though, you’re likely to catch something fantastic just by dropping your line anywhere in these teaming waters!

Lay Lake is encapsulated by 289 miles of inviting shoreline. Lake properties for sale hug the water’s edge near convenient recreation accommodations like public boat ramps, marinas, stores, and restaurants. Once your personal or rented watercraft of choice is launched, Lay Lake is yours to explore. Along its 48-mile length, you’ll come across five islands to discover. You may also like to hop from one inviting marina to the next, grabbing refreshments as you go.

Don’t be shy to step out of the water for more adventure. Lake-view properties are in close proximity to several public parks, campgrounds, and nature reserves. For example, Beeswax Creek features 100 acres of open land, walking trails, picnic areas, and boat ramps. You’ll also want to hit the links, since there’ are numerous notable golf courses in the area. Courses like Magnolia Meadow, Greystone, and Coosa Pines invite you to test your swing. If you’re interested in living on a Lay Lake area golf course, visit GolfHomes.com for property listings.
