About Lake Cypress Springs

Franklin County, Texas

Lake Cypress Springs is a massive lake about two hours away from Dallas. It is situated between the areas of Mount Vernon, Winnsboro, Pittsburg, and Mt. Pleasant.

Emergency care can be found at East Texas Medical Center, which is less than 20 minutes away. While there are many smaller airports nearby, the closest major airport is Dallas/Fort Worth International and is just over a two-hour drive from the lake.

Stock up on snacks and groceries at Vinyard’s Country Market which is about a 10-minute drive away. In terms of food, locals recommend El Manna Tex-Mex Restaurant and Cotton Belt BBQ.

Endless Opportunities

At 3,461 acres and a maximum depth of 56 feet, Lake Cypress Springs is vast, making it incredibly difficult to run out of things to do on it, or places to explore.

There are access points at five public parks, including Guthrie Park, Dogwood Park, Mary King Park, Overlook Park, and Walleye Park. All options have restrooms, parking, picnic areas, and campsites.

Anglers can expect to find species such as largemouth bass, spotted bass, catfish, crappie, bluegill, and redear sunfish on this lake.
