About

Yellowwood State Forest was created in 1940 when federal land was leased to the state of Indiana. The land was deeded to the state in 1956. Before that time, the Civilian Conservation Corps and Works Project Administration completed three lakes, a shelter house, and a residence, all still in use. More than 2,000 abandoned and eroded acres were planted to pine (red, jack, shortleaf, white, and scotch), black locust, black walnut, white, and red oak. Yellowwood Lake was completed in 1939. The 133-acre lake is about 30 feet deep. Yellowwood State Forest is close to Brown County State Park, the quaint village of Nashville, T.C. Steele State Historic Site, Monroe Lake, and Morgan-Monroe State Forest. Yellowwood State Forest has gained various parcels over the last decade and currently encompasses 24,162.9 acres.
