Natural Features

As you look out from the top of Sardis Dam you can view miles of water surrounded by beautiful forests. Sardis Lake’s total area covers 98,000 acres of land and water in the rolling hills of North Mississippi. The dam was finished in 1940 as part of a comprehensive flood control plan and controls the waters of the Little Tallahatchie River. The lower lake was created by excavating soil for the creation of the nearly 3-mile long Sardis Dam.
