Fuqua Lake

Fuqua Lake is a reservoir located in Stephens County, Oklahoma, about 21 miles northeast of the city of Duncan on State Highway 29. Constructed in 1962, it is the largest of four reservoirs that comprise the public water supply for Duncan.

The lake was reportedly named for Herbert Breedlove (Babe) Fuqua, an oil businessesperson and politician from Fort Worth, Texas.
