My wife and I moved to White River Lake a year ago as full-time residents from Lubbock. We love living out here and thoroughly enjoy the “small town” life of Spur. White River Lake is a comparatively small lake by Texas standards, better known for its fishing than as a recreational boating lake. Being within a short distance from a number of surrounding small towns and Lubbock, it gets a fair amount of visitors throughout the warmer months. This is a good thing as more visitors generate more revenue for the White River Municipal Water District, the managing board for the lake. More revenue equates to better amenities. Better amenities entice more people to visit the lake.
