This is a small series for a park that has nearly everything! No pass or entrance fee required. The reservoir side is open 7 days a week year-round. The lake, its banks, and levees are open every day from dawn to dusk....but beware...alligators do reside here! Sheldon Lake State Park Website
Only 15 miles from downtown Houston, this 2,800 acre "green and blue island' of a state park is tucked away from the hustle and bustle of life in Houston. Sheldon Reservoir, located on Carpenter's Bayou, a tributary of Buffalo Bayou, was constructed in 1942 by the federal government to provide water for war industries along the Houston Ship Channel. Texas Parks and Wildlife acquired the reservoir in 1952 and designated it as the Sheldon Wildlife Management Area; it was opened in 1955. Sheldon Lake was designated a state park in 1984.
SLSP IS AN ENVIRONMENT WHERE YOU WILL SEE WILDLIFE - ALLIGATORS, SNAKES, AND OTHER TEXAS SPECIES. Come prepared for the experience but remember not to feed, attempt to capture, or otherwise annoy the animals.
While your GPS may jump a little, patience (and using the hints) has allowed our "testers" to find these caches pretty easily. Please return so that they are well hidden. Fisher-muggles abound near the reservoir. Permits are on file with the park.
Congrats to Log Dawgs for FTF!
