KENTUCKY LAKE

Kentucky Lake, the largest man-made lake east of the Mississippi River, stretches across western Kentucky and northern Tennessee. Created by the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) in 1944 with the construction of Kentucky Dam, it covers 160,000 acres over 2,000 miles of shoreline. The lake plays a vital role in flood control, hydroelectric power generation, and regional tourism. Kentucky Lake is a popular destination for outdoor enthusiasts, offering activities like boating, fishing, camping, hiking, and wildlife observation. Recreational boaters are drawn to Kentucky Lake’s vast waters, part of the renowned Great Loop—a waterway encircling the eastern U.S. Its calm waters and scenic beauty make it a haven for anglers, especially those seeking bass, catfish, and crappie. The lake is also part of the Land Between the Lakes National Recreation Area, making it a key destination for outdoor enthusiasts and nature lovers alike.
