    Welcome to Lake O' The Pines  
 
  Located in the pine woods of east Texas we are known for our fishing, bird watching, boating and great folks. We’re a small community with a group of members we are very proud to call our backbone. These local area business owners want to make sure you enjoy your stay and that you’ll come back and visit us again. We are here to help.

This small resort community is a destination for many who seek to escape to a quieter and gentler place and time. A variety of year round activities ensures there's something for everyone to enjoy during their stay.

 
 
  Kids Fish Day 2009
 
  The first week-end in June and this year Hurricane Creek Park was the perfect place to host the 10th Annual "Kids Fish Day" hosted by the Pine Cone Fishing Club. Almost 300 kids got free fishing gear and a chance to win trophies and money. Everyone got free hot dogs not to mention wonderful family fun. The event even made television. To see the TV spot click here.  
 
  "Top's" Market Opens
 
  Something we have really needed here on the north shore of the lake is a place to buy grocery items. Until recently folks had to drive into the nearest town of Jefferson, TX 14 miles away in order to buy things they needed. Now with the opening  of the Tops Market this saves folks that inconvenience. They offer top of the line meats for grilling, produce, propane, beer, ice and all the normal grocery items a person would need for their stay on the lake as well as bait and some marine supplies. See a picture of market in 1964 - click here  
 
  Yellow Rose Marine Opens
 
  We are proud to welcome Yellow Rose Marine to the businesses here on the north shore of the lake. They repair inboard, outboard motors as well as jet-skis. Not to mention they also sell some great items such as scooters, utility vehicles and more. Be sure to stop by and say howdy  and check their selection.  
 
  Crestwood Chevron Gets New Owners
 
  The new owners of the Chevron station are really fixing it up and have even built a small grill where you can get one of Raye's famous hamburgers and some of the best fried chicken in these parts. They also carry a few grocery items for you fisherman.  
 
  All About You Massages
