About this water

Boomer Lake is located in the city of Stillwater, Oklahoma, United States, and was completed in 1925. The lake, as an artificial reservoir created by damming Boomer Creek, serves several purposes such as cooling the local power plant and providing entertainment and recreation. Boomer Lake has a surface area of 251 acres (1,020,000 m2), watershed area of 8,954 acres (36,240,000 m2), shoreline length of 8.6 miles (13.8 km), shoreline development ratio of 4.17, and mean depth of 9.7 feet (3.0 m). The lake was designed to contain 3,600 acre-feet (4,400,000 m3) in 1932, but in 2010 the capacity was reportedly only 1,484 acre-feet (1,830,000 m3).
