Lake Red Rock is a reservoir located in south-central Iowa, United States. It was created in 1969 by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers as a flood control project on the Des Moines River. The lake covers over 15,000 acres and is surrounded by 35,000 acres of public land. It is the largest lake in Iowa and is a popular destination for outdoor recreation, including fishing, boating, camping, hiking, and wildlife viewing. The lake is also home to the Red Rock Dam, which generates hydroelectric power and helps to control the flow of the Des Moines River.
