Lake St Clair

Lake St Clair in the Hunter Valley is a picturesque reservoir created by the damming of Glennies Creek, set among undulating country hills and scenic landscapes north of Singleton. The water’s edge is lined with trees and grassy foreshores, and the lake provides a peaceful outdoor setting for recreation and relaxation.

The lake is a popular destination for watersports, with sailing, boating, water skiing and fishing among the activities enjoyed here. Anglers often target Bass, Golden and Silver Perch, while families and visitors take advantage of the picnic areas and scenic drive along the eastern shoreline. The combination of water and rolling countryside makes it a classic Hunter Valley escape that’s ideal for day trips or weekend stays.

On calm mornings the surface mirrors the sky and surrounding hills, making it a lovely destination for photography and quiet contemplation. The shoreline and points around the lake offer varied views, from wide expanses of water to intimate coves and inlets. Campgrounds and facilities near the water’s edge provide easy access for campers and day visitors alike.

Lake St Clair also offers scenic drives and walks along Carrowbrook Road and adjacent country roads, with occasional glimpses of native wildlife and rich pastoral scenes that reflect the rural character of the Hunter Valley region. Its relatively easy access from Singleton and wide variety of outdoor activities make it a favourite natural retreat in this part of New South Wales.
