About Badin Lake

Convenient Location

A short drive from interstates 85 and 73, Badin Lake is as convenient as it is beautiful. The lake is a short drive from Asheboro, Lexington and Salisbury.

Borders National Forest

Much of Badin Lake's 115 miles of shoreline borders the Uwharrie National Forest, and is a short drive or boat trip to Morrow Mountain State Park. Large spans of underdeveloped lakefront allow for amazing views. Plenty of wildlife can be seen in the area, including unconfirmed sightings of Eastern Mountain Lions, believed to be extinct.

Plenty of Recreation

Badin Lake Recreation Area provides plenty of recreational enjoyment. Camping is available at several developed campgrounds for both RVs and tents.

With eight golf courses within 20 miles, Badin Lake offers much to be enjoyed, including hunting, fishing, boating and hiking.

Game fish such as largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, crappie, catfish, spotted bass, striped bass and occasionally walleye can be reeled in from the lake's waters.

Deep and Cool

Badin Lake's depths of 190 feet allow great fun and relaxation for either swimming or dropping anchor and relaxing.

Originally built in 1917 to support a local aluminum smelting plant, Badin Lake's waters boast temperatures hovering around 84 degrees in summer and 50 degrees in winter. This 5,350 acre lake is perfect for comfortable year round pleasure.
