Lake George was formed when George Earle constructed a dam on Deep River to power sawmills and gristmills.[3] The lake is fed by several small streams, including Deep River, the largest, and Turkey Creek. It is approximately {{cvt|5|km|order=flip}} long, {{cvt|300|m|order=flip}} at its widest, and has a surface area of {{cvt|270|acres}}.[4] The lake is a popular site for recreation in Hobart. Two local parks and multiple residential areas border the lake and Deep River.[3] Since its creation, the lake has accumulated a large amount of sediment in its upstream wetland areas that washes into the lake during rainfall events, leading to a decrease in water quality. In 1995, the U.S. Geological Survey carried out a survey of the lake to measure the thickness of sediment. As a result of this survey, the lake was dredged in 2000, removing nearly 600,000 cubic yards of sediment.[5] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://geonames.usgs.gov|accessdate=2015-04-14|title=US Board on Geographic Names|publisher=United States Geological Survey}} {{Commons Category|Lake George, Indiana}}2. ^{{Citation | last = Mandon, PE | first = James M. | year = 2011 | url = http://www.cityofhobart.org/documentcenter/view/42 | title = City of Hobart Parks and Recreation Master Plan 2011 | location = | publisher = | isbn = }} 3. ^1 {{cite web |title=Hobart, IN |url=http://www.encyclopedia.chicagohistory.org/pages/588.html |website=www.encyclopedia.chicagohistory.org |accessdate=August 28, 2018}} 4. ^{{cite web |last1=Folger |first1=D.
