This map has 8 layers
Jamestown Reservoir is a 2,095-acre man-made lake located just two miles north of Jamestown in central North Dakota, created by the completion of Jamestown Dam in 1953 on the James River. With a maximum depth of 38 feet and an average depth of 15 feet, the reservoir features 45 miles of scenic shoreline that winds through undeveloped prairie and wooded draws characteristic of the North American Plains. The 8-mile-long reservoir was constructed primarily for flood control as part of the Pick-Sloan Missouri Basin Program and has prevented approximately $36 million in flood-related damages since its completion. The reservoir sits in a valley carved by the James River through Pierre Shale, creating a gently rolling landscape with a unique peninsula near Jim River Bay and a small island near Lakeside Campground that's accessible for day-use activities including picnicking, shore fishing, and volleyball.
Jamestown Reservoir has become one of North Dakota's premier recreation destinations, attracting visitors for its excellent fishing, camping, boating, and bird watching opportunities. The reservoir is recognized as one of the greatest migratory waterfowl flyways in North Dakota and is regularly stocked by the North Dakota Game and Fish Department with species including Northern Pike, Walleye, Black and White Crappie, Yellow Perch, Bluegill, Smallmouth Bass, Muskie, and Bullhead. Managed by the Stutsman County Park Board, the area features extensive facilities including two major campgrounds (Pelican Point and Lakeside) with a total of 335 campsites, 110 with full RV hookups, seven boat ramps at various locations, two swimming beaches, numerous picnic areas with shelters, and over two miles of asphalt trails for walking and biking on the east side. The reservoir provides easy access from US Highways 52 and 281, with nearby Jamestown offering all necessary amenities and services for visitors exploring this scenic prairie reservoir in the heart of North Dakota.
