George's Creek

George's Creek is a boat ramp access point on Fort Loudoun Lake, a major impoundment of the Tennessee River in Blount County. The Tennessee River system is one of the largest in the eastern United States, flowing over 650 miles and draining more than 40,000 square miles. Fort Loudoun Lake is a substantial reservoir with relatively stable water levels, making it suitable for various types of boating activities.

The Tennessee River at this location has an average flow of approximately 69,000 cubic feet per second with a velocity of about 7.66 feet per second. While the river itself has significant current in free-flowing sections, Fort Loudoun Lake represents a dammed section where water velocity is considerably reduced, creating a more lake-like environment for boaters. The elevation change across the entire Tennessee River system is substantial (over 500 feet total), but the impounded section here provides calmer conditions than open river stretches.

This access point serves boaters interested in exploring Fort Loudoun Lake and the surrounding water resources. The Louisville area of Blount County provides access to a major recreational waterway with connectivity to the broader Tennessee River system. Boaters should be aware of the region's weather patterns and any seasonal water level fluctuations typical of managed reservoir systems.
