Centennial Lake is a 50-acre impoundment on the Centennial Branch of the Little Patuxent River and is located in a suburban area. The water is typically clear but can become murky following storm events and aquatic vegetation, especially algae blooms, lily pads, and submerged vegetation, are common. This is a shallow lake with many coves and hosts an overpopulation of largemouth bass and trout. With forests surrounding the lake and dominating the shoreline and several small islands on the lake, there is beautiful scenery and opportunity for wildlife viewing.
