Tiogue Lake in Kent County, Rhode Island
This map has 8 layers
Tiogue Lake is a 226-acre freshwater reservoir located in the town of Coventry in Kent County, Rhode Island, part of the scenic Pawtuxet River watershed. This man-made lake features a spacious open water area measuring approximately half a mile wide by nearly a mile long, complemented by various quiet bays and coves perfect for exploration. With an average depth of six feet and numerous natural features including protruding stumps and rocks, Tiogue Lake offers a peaceful setting surrounded by tree-lined shores and residential development. The lake was historically formed as a reservoir in an area once known as Pleasant Vale and later Barclay, named after the Scottish Quaker minister Robert Barclay by the Potter family who established textile mills in the region. By the late nineteenth century, the industrial mill operations ceased and the area transformed into a popular summer colony destination, evolving into the tranquil lakeside community it is today. Located just off Interstate 95 at Exit 7, the lake provides convenient access through multiple boat launches including the Korea-Vietnam Veterans Memorial Park on Arnold Road and a residential boat ramp on North Glen Drive, making it easily accessible for both residents and visitors exploring the Rhode Island countryside
Tiogue Lake is renowned as an excellent fishing destination, regularly stocked with trout multiple times throughout the spring season by the Rhode Island Department of Environmental Management. Anglers can expect to catch a diverse array of fish species including largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, chain pickerel, lake trout, brown trout, white perch, brown bullhead, bluegill, and bridle shiner, with the southern end of the lake featuring submerged structures and natural vegetation that serve as prime bass habitat, while northern coves attract pickerel and perch enthusiasts. The lake supports primarily car-top boats, canoes, and kayaks due to its shallow nature and residential character, with a speed limit of 35 miles per hour for watercraft to ensure safety. Korea-Vietnam Veterans Memorial Park offers benches along the lakeshore for relaxation and wildlife observation, while the surrounding Coventry area provides numerous recreational opportunities including hiking at the George B. Parker Woodland and Big River Management Area, exploring the historic Nathanael Greene Homestead from 1770, and enjoying the scenic Washington Secondary Bike Path. The lake's proximity to Providence, just a short drive to the north, and its location between major New England destinations makes it an ideal spot for both local residents and visitors seeking a peaceful day of fishing, paddling, picnicking, or simply enjoying Rhode Island's natural beauty. Coventry offers welcoming local restaurants, shops, and seasonal farmers markets, providing visitors with authentic New England hospitality and fresh local cuisine to complement their lakeside adventures

Frequently Asked Questions
Are these actually 3D or just engraved?
These are true 3D layered maps.
- Made from 1/8 inch Baltic birch
- Standard maps have 8 layers. 1 land layer and 7 water layers
- HD maps have 15 layers. 1 land layer and 14 water layers
Each water layer uses a light to dark blue gradient so depth changes are easy to see.
Where are these made?
Everything is made in my shop in Minnesota.
- Design
- Cutting
- Painting
- Assembly
- Frame building
The frames start as locally sourced rough sawn hardwood and are built from scratch.
Do you use real depth data?
Yes, as an angler and map nerd, accuracy matters to me. I use multiple data sources, up to six, to find the most accurate lake contours available.
I would not hang an inaccurate map in my house and I will not send one to yours.
Why buy from Horn Dog Maps instead of Etsy or marketplace sellers?
Most marketplace sellers:
- Buy pre-made cut files, often from overseas
- Have no connection to the lakes
- Cannot verify accuracy
- Have long delays if a file is not available
This leads to lower accuracy and longer lead times, often 6 to 8 weeks.
Because I design everything myself:
- I can create a new lake mockup in about 30 minutes
- You get a more accurate map, faster
What is your lead time?
Most orders ship in 1.5 to 2 weeks depending on the time of year.
Tell me about the Cribbage Boards
These are different from the layered maps and are not something you will find elsewhere.
- Made from a solid piece of Maple or Cherry
- The lake is engraved as if drained
- Then filled with blue tinted epoxy that is still transparent
You can see:
- Channels
- Humps
- Points
- Structure
Additional features:
- 2 or 3 track options
- Choice of peg colors
- Hidden peg storage with a magnetic dovetail slider
- Rubber feet so it does not slide on the table
It is a functional game board and a detailed lake model in one.
