Whites Creek Marina & Lakeside Resort is a family-owned boat access point located in Spring City on Watts Bar Lake, a scenic Tennessee River impoundment. The facility offers a dedicated boat launch with modern amenities including covered boat slips, making it convenient for kayakers, canoeists, and motorboats. The marina is accessible by water at river marker 562.5 on Watts Bar Lake, approximately 2 miles up Caney Creek—be aware of the 22-foot maximum clearance under the bridge when navigating the creek approach. The facility monitors Channel 16 VHF radio.
Beyond water access, the resort provides additional amenities that make it suitable for extended paddling trips, including an on-site bait and tackle shop, motel rooms, cottages with kitchenettes, and a sandy beach area for swimming. This makes it a good staging point for exploring the Watts Bar Lake system. For current channel conditions and depth information before visiting, especially when accessing via Caney Creek, contact the marina directly via VHF or phone.
