Get the book "Lake Martin, Alabama's Crown Jewel"....it has a lot of the lakes history. Castaway Island was an amusment park back in the 50's and what you are seeing is about all that's left. Another Larry (Little Talisi on this forum) can tell you a lot more. His home is by the old boy scout camp and he's been there for over 50 years.
