Is a man made lake. Average depth is about 9 feet. Filled in 1954 it has a very interesting shoreline. Not established like Winni.

The water is very muddy compared to Winni. There are fish but mostly eels. The water is warm year round. Does not freeze over in the winter. Most of the boats are left in the water year round.

Known for huge rafting parties. I believe they hold the record for the most boats rafting. An aerial view of the rafting can be seen in most establishments around the lake. The lake is not wide. Very narrow with lots of coves. So the waves are man made.

Holidays and weekends get crazy busy. More so than Winni. Most of the boats are of the bass boats, bow riders type. Plenty of HP boats as NASCAR headquarters is in Mooresville.

Not many condos like Winni around the lake. Mostly home owners associations. With nice docking ammenities, club houses, and swimming pools.
