Lake Collins is surrounded by oak and pine covered hills. There is a marina on site with a boat ramp and fuel available, as well as a bait and tackle shop, store for supplies, propane refills, and RV sites with hookups that have accessible bathrooms and showers. During the colder months, the lake is stocked with rainbow trout, while the warmer months feature bass, catfish, and crappie fishing. The amenities and proximity make it a very accessible lake for most fishing trips.
