Calderwood Overlook, just off the Tail of the Dragon scenic drive. Calderwood Lake is an impoundment of the Little Tennessee River on the state line of Tennessee and North Carolina just to the south of Smoky Mountain National Park. Calderwood-Dam is a hydroelectric dam located on the Little Tennessee River in Blount and Monroe counties, Tennessee. Completed in 1930, the dam is owned and maintained by Tapoco, a subsidiary of the Aluminum Company of America (Alcoa), although the Tennessee Valley Authority controls the dam’s reservoir levels from Fontana Dam further upstream. Calderwood Dam is named for Alcoa engineer Isaac Glidden Calderwood (1871-1941), who supervised much of the company’s early Little Tennessee River operations.
