RECREATION
Higginsville City Lake offers opportunities to fish, picnic, walk, jog, hunt, and observe
wildlife. Facilities associated with the lake include picnic areas and tables, restrooms and a
fishing pier for people with disabilities, and boat ramps. Duck and goose hunting is allowed
during the open seasons. The city of Higginsville is responsible for operation and maintenance
of the recreational facilities. There are no other public recreational facilities in the
watershed. A privately owned golf course is located adjacent to the lake.
There is potential for development of a small wetland habitat above the lake, which could
increase educational opportunities. Other areas adjacent and near the lake can be used for
educational purposes to teach about water quality, fisheries, and other aquatic resource issues.
