Constructed in 1969, this earthen dam impounds the waters of Yellow Creek, creating the expansive 720-acre Yellow Creek Lake. The dam plays a vital role in regulating water levels, controlling flooding, and providing a recreational hub for visitors.

Beyond its practical functions, the dam also contributes to the park's natural beauty. The surrounding area offers scenic hiking trails where you can explore the diverse ecosystem and appreciate the engineering marvel of the dam.
