Lake Martin is located in Tallapoosa, Elmore and Coosa counties in Alabama. It is a 44,000 acre lake with over 750 miles of wooded shoreline. Lake Martin is a reservoir, formed by the construction of Martin Dam on the Tallapoosa River. 
Lake Martin includes many popular attractions, including eagles nest, natural sand beaches, restaurants, camping areas and popular islands. The lake has several landmarks, such as the Kowaliga Bridge, and several marinas, but perhaps the most recognized landmark on the lake is Chimney Rock, a large rock formation that resembles a chimney. Chimney Rock is located several hundred yards away; the formation which most people call Chimney Rock is Acapulco Rock. The area was the Tallapoosa River gorge before Martin Dam was built, and the water is more than 150 feet deep. The spot is visited by thousands of boaters yearly, who park in front of "The Rock" to watch people climb up 60 feet and jump into the water. 

Lake Martin RV Resort is a gated community on the southeast side of beautiful Lake Martin. The Resort has 103 lots that are privately owned. Covenants and Bylaws have been established to place certain restrictions on lands and improvements and provide for an orderly and efficient management of the Resort.
