Tallapoosa County, Alabama
Tallapoosa County occupies east-central Alabama with Dadeville as its seat. With a population of around 41,000, the county is a favorite spot for fishing, boating, and summer getaways.
Lake Martin is one of the largest man-made lakes in the United States. It defines much of the county’s recreation and culture. U.S. Highway 280 runs through here, which can help you get to where you want to go.
When here, make a pit stop at Horseshoe Bend National Military Park preserves. This is the site of Andrew Jackson’s victory over the Creek Indians. This was during the last battle of the Creek Indian War of 1813-1814.
