Overview
Lake Bistineau is a roughly 17,500-acre cypress-studded reservoir on Bayou Dorcheat in Bossier, Bienville, and Webster parishes in northwest Louisiana, southeast of Shreveport. A dam on Loggy Bayou first held a permanent pool in the late 1930s and was enlarged in 1951 to today's pool stage. The lake is managed for recreation and fisheries by the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries, with Lake Bistineau State Park anchoring public access on the western shore.
