This private dam, primarily used for recreation purposes, holds a storage capacity of 63 acre-feet and serves as a popular spot for water enthusiasts in the area. The dam, constructed with an earth core and buttress type, is situated along the Little Cedar Creek and is managed by the Galveston District of the US Army Corps of Engineers.
Although the dam has not been rated for condition assessment, it poses a high risk potential (rated 2) and lacks proper emergency action plans as of the last inspection in 1978. Despite its age, the Lake No 1 Dam continues to provide a vital source of water for recreational activities and wildlife in the region. With its picturesque surroundings and serene atmosphere, this dam offers a peaceful retreat for those seeking to enjoy the beauty of nature while also highlighting the importance of water resource management in the face of changing climates.
