Only one natural lake in the State: Lake Caddo.
Actually, the above answer is false. Sabine Lake is also a natural lake, and is over 90,000 acres in mass. Sabine Lake is much older than Caddo Lake by a several hundred years, and is seven miles wide by fourteen miles long. Caddo Lake is only 25,000 acres, and was created by an earthquake and the subsequent log jam that dammed the river, creating Caddo Lake around 1812.
Sabine Lake is fed by the Neches and Sabine Rivers, and has several marsh areas. Sabine Lake feeds into the gulf at Sabine Pass, Sabine Lake is primarily brackish water, caused by the salt water from the gulf, and the fresh water supplied by the two rivers.
