Located in the murky depths of Dale Hollow Lake, the once thriving town – Willow Grove got its name from the trees that bordered the area. The town had everything you’d expect to see in a town, church, grocery store and apparently one of the largest schools in the area. During the World War most of the men went to the frontiers and died. Soon the government set their eyes on the picturesque place and began building dams. Later the area got flooded and today bows the Willow Groves sit in the bottom of a crystal clear lake.
