Lake Oconee has served as a recreational reservoir in central Georgia since the late 1970s. Formed by the impoundment of the Oconee River behind Wallace Dam, it spreads through wooded coves and open water between Eatonton and Greensboro. Georgia Power completed the dam in 1979, creating a lake that has become a focus for boating, fishing and lakeside resort communities. The surrounding area, known as Georgia’s Lake Country, combines the rural character of the Piedmont with golf courses and second homes.
