About Lake Luxembourg
Lake Luxembourg is number 99 on the LakePA 100: a 166-acre reservoir in Bucks County, in our Southeast region. The acreage comes from the Fish and Boat Commission's PA Lakes map. Gas motors are not allowed; you share the water only with electric-motor boats, so it counts as Quiet Water. That rule is as listed by the Fish and Boat Commission's access data. There are two put-ins on our list for this lake, among them Core Creek Park and Core Creek Park- (24 Hour). Core Creek Park has a paved ramp, a pier and parking listed as 10 spaces or more. The listed launches are run by Bucks County, so check its rules before you go. A dam holds the water back, so keep well away from the dam, the spillway and any outlet structures. Logging it moves you toward the Southeast region milestone. As the crow flies, the closest put-in is about 17 miles from Philadelphia. Check the weather, posted signs and the operator's latest notices before you launch.

Safety
Paddling has real risks. Wear your life jacket. Pennsylvania requires it to be worn on canoes, kayaks and paddleboards from Nov 1 through Apr 30, and by children 12 and under all year. Check the weather, posted signs and the operator's notices before you launch. Stay well away from dams, spillways and outlet structures. You paddle at your own risk.
