Lakes We Serve · LA

Marine construction on Vernon Lake.

Vernon Lake sits on Anacoco Bayou in Vernon Parish, with most of its waterfront activity around Leesville.

Know the Water

Quiet piney-woods water near Leesville.

Water levels here stay comparatively steady, which rewards fixed piers, full-height bulkheads, and boathouses built tight to the waterline. Vernon Parish oversees the lake, and shoreline approvals run through parish channels — which we handle alongside the construction itself.

What We Build Here

Full-scope waterfront work on Vernon Lake.

Custom Boathouses

Entertainment-grade boathouses on Vernon Lake — open-gable cooling, lifts, lighting, and storm-rated substructures.

Docks & Piers

Fixed, floating, and swim piers built tight to a constant-level shoreline.

Bulkheads & Retaining Walls

Shoreline retention on Vernon Lake: galvanized steel, vinyl, FRP composite, and heavy timber — matched to the soil and exposure.

Precision Dredging

Boat slip, shoreline, and access-channel dredging — material pumped for backfill reuse instead of hauled off by truck.

Things To Know

Before you build on Vernon Lake.

01

Who approves shoreline construction on Vernon Lake?

Vernon Parish — and requirements change over time, so we verify the current rules and carry the approvals as part of every project rather than leaving them to the owner.

02

Does a stable lake level make construction easier on Vernon Lake?

It helps — fixed piers and full-height bulkheads thrive on constant-level water. The structure can be built tight to the waterline without designing for a huge seasonal swing.

03

Does Shore Tech build on Vernon Lake?

Yes, selectively. Dave regularly travels for the right project, and Vernon Lake is squarely inside Shore Tech's working footprint across Texas, southern Oklahoma, and western Louisiana. Call to talk through scope and scheduling.
