Lake Catatoga Information

This peaceful, sparkling body of water features a surface area of 66 acres and a dam on its northern end. It is nestled in Macoupin County - named after Macoupin Creek, a strong stream that winds throughout the area. 'Macopina' is the Native American word for 'water lily.' Indigenous tribes, such as the Peoria and the Cahokia, used to eat the roots of these fragrant plants. HISTORY: Hundreds of years ago, the lands of modern day Lake Catatoga and Macoupin County were heavily utilized for hunting waterfowl, prairie chicken, and deer. Buffalo and elk were also pursued up until the mid-1700s, when a heavy snowstorm wiped them out in one fell swoop. Artifacts are frequently found in the region to this day, with the oldest specimen dating back ten thousand years. Back then, the area was covered with swampy lakes, marshes and wetlands before settlers drained most of them for cultivation purposes. CURRENT DAY: Lake Catatoga's laid-back ambiance and convenient location have established it as a highly desirable place to live and visit. Real estate properties are available.
