Inland Lake

Blount County, Alabama

Located near Oneonta, Alabama, Inland Lake is approximately 1,550 acres of water created by impounding the Blackburn Fork of the Little Warrior River.

The lake is operated by the Birmingham Water Works, which owns all 33 miles of shoreline and uses the reservoir as a water supply for the city. Because of the city's water needs, the reservoir can experience heavy drawdown yearly, typically reaching its lowest in late fall.

Downtown Birmingham is under 40 miles away, making it a great day trip location. The Birmingham-Shuttlesworth International Airport is under 45 miles away, and the Ascension St. Vincent’s Blount Hospital is under 10 miles away.

On the Water Fun

Although the Birmingham Water Works owns the shoreline, there are still two public boat ramps allowing for recreational use of the water, which is known for its clarity. Boating, fishing, and swimming are all very common on the lake.

The fishing opportunities here are great! As one of Alabama’s premier fishing destinations, anglers can expect to catch largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, sauger and catfish.
