Cagles Mill Lake
Cagles Mill Lake-also known as Cagles Mill Reservoir and Cataract Lake-is located on two of central Indiana’s popular outdoor recreational sites: Lieber State Recreation Area and Cataract Falls State Recreation Area.
Lieber State Recreation Area and Cataract Falls State Recreation Area, two of central Indiana's most well-liked outdoor recreation destinations, are where Cagles Mill Lake, also known as Cagles Mill Reservoir and Cataract Lake, is situated.
The Indiana counties of Owen and Putnam both contain Cagles Mill Lake. It is a 1410-acre artificial lake that is renowned for both its natural beauty and its waterfalls. The US Army Corps of Engineers is in charge of the mostly forested area around Cagles Mill Lake. This woodland area, which is home to deer, wild turkeys, and a variety of other local animals, is ideal for lawful hunters and interested onlookers. When Cagles Mill Dam was constructed across Mill Creek, the lake was formed. The dam was developed and built in 1953 by the Louisville District of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, and it is still in use today to stop flooding in the Eel and White River Watersheds. The dam is located near Cagles Mill Lake's northernmost point. It is 900 feet long and 150 feet high.
