Eagle Mountain Lake is a reservoir in North Texas, formed by the damming the West Fork of the Trinity River.
The Texas State Board of Water Engineers granted a permit for constructing the dam that would form Eagle Mountain Lake on May 1, 1928.
Construction of the dam that formed the reservoir began on January 23, 1930 and was completed on October 24, 1932.
During World War II, the lake's eastern shore was the site of Marine Corps Air Station Eagle Mountain Lake, a military installation built to house the military's glider program.
