Things to do in Lake Martin

Lake Martin was created in the 1920s when Alabama Power built Martin Dam on the Tallapoosa River, and its more than 40,000 acres of clear water and hundreds of miles of wooded shoreline have made it Alabama’s favorite lake for second homes. Families from Birmingham, Montgomery and Atlanta keep houses along its coves, and the communities developed by Russell Lands, including Russell Crossroads, have added restaurants, marinas and golf. The nearby town of Alexander City is the main commercial center, with a long manufacturing history.

    Chimney Rock

    This rocky outcrop along the shoreline is a popular boat-in spot where daring swimmers jump from the ledges into the lake, while others watch from anchored boats.

    A walkable village built by Russell Lands includes a market, restaurants, shops, trails and a stable, and hosts concerts and events throughout the warmer months.
