Timberhill Lodge is just a stone's throw from Big Hill Lake, which has recently been listed by Field and Stream magazine as one of the "Top 20 Bass Lakes". The lake is formed inside of 20 square miles of shoreline with 1,240 acres of surface, at normal pool.

A variety of fish include largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, crappie, channel and flathead catfish and walleye. With several fishing clubs from across Kansas, Missouri and Oklahoma hosting tournaments throughout the year, there is never any lack of excitement. Two boat launch ramps on the lake, managed by the Corp of Engineers, provide access to the lake.

You provide all fishing gear needed.

You may have questions about eating fish caught in some Kansas waters. The good news is that it's safe to eat fish caught from the vast majority of Kansas waters. Fishing in Kansas is a wonderful tradition and family activity, and it also provides nutritious, low-fat table fare with cardiovascular benefits. If you've caught fish from Big Hill Lake or our pond, you can rest assured they are safe to eat.
