Lake Mohawk[2] is a private reservoir located about 1.5 mi (2.4 km) south of Malvern, Ohio, USA and 2.5 mi (4.0 km) east of Waynesburg, Ohio. It resides in Brown Township and Harrison Township. The lake is relatively small, being a private lake containing 0.7922 sq mi (2.052 km2) of water with a maximum depth of 30 ft (9.1 m). There is only one place to put in boats, however, there are 13 community access docks that can hold boats. The lake is formed by Lake Mohawk Dam[3] across Middle Run,[4] a tributary of Sandy Creek. The lake is fed by a series of springs and rainwater runoff.
