Lake Overstreet

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Lake Overstreet is a small lake located in central Leon County, Florida, USA.

Lake Overstreet is 144 acres in size and falls within the property of Alfred B. Maclay Gardens State Park and is just northwest of Lake Hall by 500 feet. Access to the lake is only by hiking trails.

The lake and land surrounding it were part of the Lafayette Land Grant. During antebellum years, this lake was within Andalusia Plantation owned by Frenchman Emile Dubois. Later, it was the western border of Live Oak Plantation.

Fish found in Lake Overstreet include largemouth bass, bluegills and bream.
