About Lake Martin


 


Known as  Lake Tahoe of the South,  Lake Martin is  located on


the  southern edge of the Appalachian Mountains.


Lake Martin is a pristine, clear water lake with 


emerald green/blue water rivaling the Caribbean.  Lake Martin's


45,000 acres is the Crown Jewel of  Southeastern 


USA Lakes, and for that matter, it may well be the Crown Jewel


of all lakes. With approx. 850 miles of shoreline,  and over 80 islands to


explore, Lake Martin provides the ultimate playground for water activities


of all kinds. The shore line distance is approx. the same as the coastline


distance  from New Orleans to Miami.  The mild climate  at Lake Martin 


makes it perfect for year round use. It is the perfect lake for sailing  and all


types of water sports.  In 2010, Lake Martin was named a Treasured Lake by


Governor Bob Riley.
