Douglas Lake, located in East Tennessee, has a 550-mi (885-km) coastline and an area of 30,400 ac (12302 ha), allowing a wide range of activities for everyone. With its size, it is the best location to fish for crappie and largemouth bass. Its many beautiful islands provide peaceful venues for a picnic with friends or family. Hiking is another popular activity you can try here due to the lake’s position in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains. There are several activities to keep you occupied here, but before giving them a go, choose a base with its own pool so you can still have fun even while staying in your rental.
