Lake History
Factoid: J. Percy Priest Lake was one of the first Corps of Engineers lakes to have recreation as part of its justification. In soothing contrast to the sparkling waters of the lake are the adjacent 19,087 acres of grasslands and woodlands. A highlight of this area, the Cedar Glades Natural Area, harbors as many as 14 endemic plants, and the endangered Tennessee coneflower may be found.
