Built in 1966, this earth dam structure stands at 47.7 feet tall with a hydraulic height of 41.6 feet, providing a storage capacity of 3,093 acre-feet. The lake covers a surface area of 134 acres and has a drainage area of 0.88 square miles, fed by the Fox Creek.
Despite its low hazard potential and moderate risk assessment, the dam at Fox Creek Lake has not been rated for its condition. The last inspection was conducted in January 2018, with a recommended inspection frequency of every three years. While there are no associated locks or outlet gates, the spillway type is uncontrolled, and the reservoir does not have a designated inundation map or emergency action plan in place. With its tranquil setting and recreational offerings, Fox Creek Lake is a picturesque destination for water resource and climate enthusiasts looking to explore the natural beauty of Tennessee.
