Brownbill Reserve, Laanecoorie, is a popular spot along the Laanecoorie Reservoir for fishing, swimming, boating, water skiing, picnics and barbecues.
There are multiple picnic areas which offer picnic tables, fire pits, and undercover areas. The electric barbecues themselves have been removed, and only one wood fire barbecue remains in a secluded, attractive lake-side spot at the far end of the reserve.
A large undercover area houses two picnic tables and a wood fireplace.
Rubbish bin and dog waste disposal bin are available in the reserve.
