About Hyco Lake

Person and Caswell Counties

Hyco Lake is in the far northern region of North Carolina, near the North Carolina-Virginia border.

The lake is just 10 miles west of Roxboro. The city is convenient for restaurants, shops, Person Memorial hospital, and schools.

Raleigh-Durham is just an hour’s drive south if you are looking for a larger city scene. It also includes the Raleigh-Durham International Airport.

A Beautiful Expanse

Fed by Hyco Creek, South Hyco Creek, and Cobbs Creek, Hyco Lake boasts clean, clear waters. The lake spans 3,750 acres and has 120 miles of shoreline.

Because large areas of the shoreline are undeveloped, the mountainous views are spectacular. Residents can see deer, geese, beaver, and ducks throughout the year.

All Sorts of Lake Enjoyment

Since its construction in 1965, Hyco Lake has been a popular host of aquatic activities. Boating, water skiing, fishing, kayaking, canoeing, and swimming are regular activities.

Anglers come to the lake for excellent catches of bass, crappie, bluegill, catfish, sauger, and walleye. Several fishing tournaments are held on the lake throughout the year.

Person Caswell Recreation Park includes a swimming beach, boat ramp, campground, and bathhouse. Hyco Lake Marina and Buoys Bar & Grill are off the Semora Road Bridge.
