Hickory Log Creek Dam is a 55 m high roller-compacted-concrete dam just north of the Riverstone business district in Canton, and just west of Bluffs Parkway. The city partnered with the Cobb County-Marietta Water Authority to build the dam. Hickory Log Creek Reservoir is a drought-contingency reservoir which provides an additional source of drinking water for the area. The dam is approximately 290 m wide, and 55 m high, making it one of largest dams in the state of Georgia not built by the Corps of Engineers or Georgia Power. The reservoir covers 1.66 km2 when full, and offers 24 km of shoreline.
