About Lake Oliver

Between Two States

Lake Oliver lies between Phenix City, Alabama, and Columbus, Georgia; it has portions in Muscogee County, Georgia, and Lee County, Alabama. It is 2,150 acres with 40 miles of shoreline and is part of the Chattahoochee River. Lake Oliver is just 80 miles away from historic Montgomery, Alabama. Lake Oliver has both private and public access.

On the Waters

Spring, Fall, and Winter are perfect times to fish on Lake Oliver. Anglers can catch sunfish, bream, bluegill, channel catfish, crappie, and several types of bass in Lake Oliver. Lake Oliver Marina has an on-site bait shop that sells live bait.

Summer is the ideal time for watersports like water skiing, tubing, and wakeboarding on Lake Oliver. The only boats not allowed on Lake Oliver are houseboats, so everything else is fair game. Lake Oliver Marina provides ramps to launch your boats and is the only public access point for Lake Oliver.

Around Town

The city of Columbus has many different tourist attractions, including the National Infantry Museum, Coca-Cola Space Science Center, and the WestRock Observatory. Locals love to eat at the Black Cow, Minnie’s Uptown Restaurant, and Zombie Pig BBQ.
