Lake History

Factoid: Located on the Cumberland River, Wolf Creek Dam holds back waters that create the 100-mile long reservoir known as Lake Cumberland, The Houseboat Capital of the World. The lake is the eighth largest in the United States and is a cherished vacation destination for millions of visitors each year. The lake is in close proximity to major highways and interstates, has breathtaking natural beauty, offers miles of open waters, provides hundreds of miles of secluded shoreline, and the surrounding communities and marinas maintain an abundance of full-service amenities making Lake Cumberland a true water-way get-away for visitors from all walks of life.
