Lake Wallenpaupack is a large man made Lake on the border of Wayne and Pike Counties. It was formed in the 1920's when PA Power & Light dammed the Wallenpaupack Creek. The village of Wilsonville was submerged.

Legend has it that then the lake is at its lowest level you can see the church steeple poking up through the surface of the lake.

Well, it's not true, as Wilsonville was flattened before the lake filled up.

But it makes for a good legend.
