About Lake Oconee
Lake Oconee was formed in 1979 when Georgia Power finished Wallace Dam on the Oconee River, upstream of Lake Sinclair; the two lakes are linked by a pumped-storage plant that runs water both ways. The lake covers about 19,000 acres with 374 miles of shoreline between Greensboro, Eatonton and Madison.
Reynolds Lake Oconee, with its six golf courses and the Ritz-Carlton, turned the lake into Atlanta's second-home country in the 1990s; the north shore is quieter, with the old town of Greensboro and the Piedmont farmland behind it.
