While the largest man-made lakes in the U.S. are situated in the Western U.S. (mostly branching off of the Colorado River) there are some substantial lakes in the Eastern U.S. as well. The largest man-made lake in the East is the Kentucky Lake, situated in Marshall, Calloway, Livingston, Lyon, and Trigg counties, southwestern Kentucky, U.S.; its southern extremity overlaps into Tennessee. The lake is 184 miles (296 km) long and has more than 2,300 miles (3,700 km) of shoreline; its average area is about 260 square miles (673 square km). It was created in 1944 when the Kentucky Dam impounded the Tennessee River.
