Homme Lake

Homme Lake is a reservoir that was built by Homme Dam and gives visitors a magical glimpse of North Dakota's wildness. Homme is home to a variety of minnow species, including creek chub, fathead, and others.

Homme Lake is named in honor of Mr. H.G. Homme, a well-known businessman and investor from Grafton who fervently supported the project. Joshua Homme, a musician, is descended from H.G. Homme. The United States Army Corps of Engineers created the lake, and they continue to manage some of the surrounding lands while the city manages the facilities.

In the summer, you can go hiking and hunting in these undeveloped areas, but in the winter, cross-country skiing and snowmobiling are popular pastimes. To its south is the Homme Dam Recreation Area, which provides a wide range of water sports and camping options. Homme Lake is home to fish species like northern pike, walleye, perch, and crappie.
