About Deepwater

Deepwater is a quiet, small-town community in Henry County, tucked along Route 13 just south of Clinton. Named after the creek that winds through the area and feeds into Harry S. Truman Reservoir, it is a great landing spot for anyone looking for a slower pace of life close to nature. Living here puts you right on the edge of lake country, where open timber, rolling farmland, and easy highway access make getting around the region simple.

Daily life in Deepwater revolves around outdoor recreation and a tight-knit community feel. Boaters, anglers, and hunters appreciate having boat ramps, fishing coves, and public wildlife areas practically in their backyard around Deepwater and Cooper creeks. Families have the benefit of the Lakeland R-3 School District, which houses both elementary and high school grades on a single campus right in town. For major shopping, dining, and healthcare, Clinton is only a quick ten-minute drive north.
