Archusa Creek Reservoir is a 450-acre lake located on the east side of Quitman and is the centerpiece for the Archusa Creek Water Park. It has large fishing populations, especially for bass, catfish, perch, and bream. Swimming, boating, and waterskiing are among some of the most popular activities on the lake. Archusa Creek Water Park also offers other outdoor recreational opportunities. On the west side of the reservoir there is some residential development but most of the shoreline scenery is natural and very beautiful with thick forest all around. There are also a few forested islands on the water that are very pretty.
