Information: Comprised of Big Chapman Lake on the north and Little Chapman Lake on the south, connected by a dual-lane channel. These spring-fed lakes have no incoming major streams, but, there are five major drains serving the 4,500 acres of Chapman Lakes watershed, about seven square miles. There are about 725 homes on the lakes, with more than 75-percent of these considered year-around residences. As a result, the two lakes can easily be considered a "community" of more than 2,500 family residents.
