Located about four miles outside of Lubbock, Buffalo Springs Lake is the perfect oasis in the west! We have boating, fishing, hiking, camping, and much more!

*Flood Advisory* along the river from Mackenzie Park to Buffalo Springs Lake until 4:00. No rain expected until later this afternoon, so hopefully we'll see some improvement until then. Be aware if you live along the river/lakes in this area.

Did you know, in 1874, Buffalo hunters in search of buffalo roaming on the high plains, fought with Comanche Indians that inhabited the area? #lubbockhistory #buffalospringslake #didyouknow

Sunrise and sunset are the most beautiful times to be at the lake. You don't even need a filter to take beautiful pictures, the lake does it for you. Do you have a favorite time to be out at the lake? Let us know in the comments below! #buffalospringslake #thingstodoinlubbock
