Deerhead Lake is a forest lake at the heart of Doe Valley Forest, in the northwest of Knox Country. Its outline vaguely resembles the skull of a deer, a good fit for its name.

The lake sits in the largest and most remote district of the forest. A sprawling web of dirt roads leads in through the trees. Small islands rise from the water. Along the shores stand shower buildings and a small picnic area.

Survivors come here for peace and open water. The Deerhead Lake Park Ranger station and Camp Camus lie close by, giving supplies and shelter far from any town.

Surviving in Deerhead Lake

The lake gives endless water and fishing. The surrounding forest gives wood, foraging and trapping. The district is very rural, so zombies are scarce away from the main buildings.

The dirt roads in are long and winding. Over time they overgrow with trees and become undrivable. Felling the trees or walking in and out can be exhausting, so stocking up before settling saves dangerous trips.
