APPLE VALLEY
Nestled in the unspoiled hills of Knox County is Apple Valley Lake. The perfect place for living the American dream. Beautiful homes line the shoreline or perch on the hills offering a view of the sparkling water, winding country roads, and apple trees in bloom.
Apple Valley Lake is a planned development created by American Paper Company. Construction began in 1970 and the lake was full in 1972. Of the total 3,770 acres in the development, 511 are under water forming a lake 3 1/4 miles long with 9 ½ miles of shoreline. All the lots have been sold and approximately 1,700 homes have been built on the over 6,600 lots.
It is said that Apple Valley Lake is the cleanest lake in Ohio. There are two reasons for this. First every lot has sewer and water available. No home is connected to a septic tank and therefore there is no leaching into the lake. Secondly, the lake is deep. At the dam the depth is over 65 feet, most of the lake runs about 50 feet deep the middle and the average depth is 35 feet over all.
Apple Valley Lake offers a wonderful selection of water related activities including fishing, boating, and skiing. There is a par 71, 18 hole golf course with 6,968 yards on 160 acres.
