Prior to 1978, flooding of the Neuse River caused extensive damage. The Falls Lake Project was developed by the US Army Corps of Engineers to control floods and supply water. Construction of the dam began in 1978 and in 1983 North Carolina’s 3rd state recreation area was established on the lake. Please visit the park's website : ncparks.gov/falls-lake-state-recreation-area
