Description: "During the 1930's local men, employed by the Works Progress Administration (WPA), began building the lake and a recreation area and planting trees under the guidance of the Soil Conservation Service. With native oak from the lake bed and native stone and native skills, the buildings took shape and the lake filled with clear spring water. By 1954, the trees were tall, and the administration of the land was passed to the U. S. Forest Service." -from www.fs.fed.us
