About Rocky Pond (historical)

Rocky Pond in Benton County, Tennessee, presents a unique experience with its expansive surface area covering over 117,000 acres. Despite its vast size, the lake is notably shallow, with a maximum depth of zero feet, which shapes the character of its waters and surrounding environment. This shallow nature influences the lake's accessibility and the types of activities it supports throughout the year. The lake sits near the town of Big Sandy and is framed by the natural backdrop of Paris Landing State Park and Nathan Bedford Forrest State Park, adding to the scenic context of the area. Visitors can appreciate the broad, open waters and the quiet atmosphere that comes with such a shallow and sprawling body of water in this part of Tennessee.
