Lake Jackson : Jackson Lake : Georgia

Lake Jackson 

Lake Jackson was formed in 1910 when a dam and hydroelectric plant was constructed at Lloyd Shoals on the Ocmulgee River by the Central Georgia Power Company. It is one of the earliest constructed reservoirs in Georgia. Fed by the Alcovy, South and Yellow Rivers as well as Tussahaw Creek, Jackson Lake has about 135 miles of shoreline and covers about 4,750 acres. Lake Jackson lies in three Georgia counties: Butts County, Jasper County and Newton County.

Lying about an hour southeast of Atlanta and a little shorter distance northeast of Macon, for about a century Jackson Lake has been a perfect place for relaxation and recreation for many. Boating, water skiing, swimming and of course fishing are among the many recreational opportunities available.

Homes around Jackson Lake range from modest to extravagant, providing ample opportunities for most anyone preferring a relaxed lake-based lifestyle.

Golfers can enjoy life at Jackson Lake too. The Turtle Cove Golf Course on the east side of the lake is a 9-hole executive length course offering 4,030 yards of golf excitement.

One happy golfer echoed the opinion of many when he said "The course is in great shape and the course is fun and enjoyable to play. This is a great Value!" 

Golfers will find many other metro Atlanta and metro Macon golf courses only a short drive way.
