Hyco Lake is a man-built lake in Person and Caswell counties, North Carolina. It is the area's main destination for fishing, boating, etc. It was built in the early 1970s as a dam for the first of Person County's Progress Energy plants. It is the largest of Person County's two lakes, the other being Mayo Lake. Its main tributary is Hyco River.
Interest in the lake for vacation homes has created numerous homes along its shores with relatively high property values. It runs through two main muncipalties: Semora, and Leasburg, and one main town Roxboro
