That Dam History Tour
It may be hard to believe, but before the late 1920s, there was no Lake Murray - just miles of farmland and communities. Landowners and families in those communities were asked to sell their homesteads and land to create the Lake. For many, that meant leaving behind generations of life, buildings, bridges and more - much of which remains under the Lake.
The Lake also played an important and high-profile role in WWII efforts.
The 2-hour Dam History Tour offers up to 6 Guests the opportunity to learn all about the building of the dam, some lost secrets of Lake Murray, and the answer to the legend of the catfish larger than a Volkswagon.
Guests may bring snacks and beverages of their choice.
That Dam History Tour is offered starting at $290 for up to six people and includes the boat, Captain, and fuel.
