Page Lake was created by settler Leonard Corse, who built dams in 1820 and 1830. The dam was again rebuilt after a collapse and flood in 1855. The dam feeds into Salt Lick Creek, a tributary of the Susquehanna River.

Page Lake has been privately owned by the Lakeside Outing Club Inc. since 1922, and is operated as a "residential and vacation community."[1][3]
