Cedar Creek Lake (Kentucky)

Cedar Creek Lake is a 784-acre (317 ha) reservoir in eastern Lincoln County, Kentucky, USA, between Stanford and Crab Orchard along U.S. Highway 150.

"This project, first conceived in 1989, will soon result in a recreational and economic jewel for Lincoln County and this region," as said by Kentucky ex-Governor Paul E. Patton during the September 4, 2002, Cedar Creek Dam dedication.

On February 16, 2003, due to excessive amounts of rain, the lake was filled sooner than predicted.

The Hebron Methodist Church, the Vardeman/Holmes/Daws/Stephenson Family Cemetery, and a small section of Kentucky Route 1770 were relocated before the lake's impoundment.

Future developments around Cedar Creek Lake will include a marina and a public beach (no completion date is known at this time).
