This 176-acre lake was constructed in 1981 as a water supply for the city of Marceline. Since enrollment in the Community Assistance Program, the Missouri Conservation Department has added parking lots, a privy, concrete boat ramp, and access roads to the facilities. Marceline City reservoir provides fishing opportunities for largemouth bass, bluegill, crappie, and channel catfish. Channel catfish are stocked periodically by the Conservation Department.
