This historic dam created Lake Davidson over 100 years ago. You can still feel the old time small town charm as trains pass by on either side of the creek. It is easily viewed from Hwy. 261 or from The Depot Grill on the south side or the old Incahoots on the north side. You can also walk out on the island right below the dam from the Amphitheater park on the other side of the highway.
