Information: Lake Catherine is a small 1,940-acre (790 ha) lake near Hot Springs. Lake Catherine is separated from Lake Hamilton by Carpenter Dam. Lake Catherine State Park is located on the lake's shore. The state park contains 18 cabins. Lake Catherine was created in the 1920s with the building of Remmel Dam. Remmel Dam was created to provide hydroelectricity, but recreation came as a result of lake's location next to Hot Springs.
