The Walter F. George Lake, named for Walter F. George (1878–1957), a United States Senator from Georgia, is formed on the Chattahoochee River along the border between Alabama and Georgia. It is also widely known by the unofficial name, Lake Eufaula — particularly on the Alabama side. The lake extends north from the Walter F. George Lock and Dam providing approximately 640 miles (1,030 km) of shoreline. Popular activities along the lake include camping and trophy fishing.
