Lake Tillery
Lake Tillery serves as the reservoir for the Tillery hydroelectric plant that provides not only electricity but is one of the Piedmont's best recreational lakes. The fishing and boating are great! Numerous attractive lakefront housing communities provide residents with year-round enjoyment of this popular destination. The northern end of the lake is bounded by Morrow Mountain State Park and the Uwharrie National Forest. It is here that the tranquil Uwharrie River flows into the mighty Yadkin - and the river changes names to the Pee Dee.
