Great Dismal Swamp, low-lying marshland, east central United States, in southeastern Virginia and northeastern North Carolina. Formerly known as the Dismal Swamp, it covers an area of 1,940 sq km (750 sq mi) and is in part densely forested and rich in wildlife. Dismal Swamp National Wildlife Refuge occupies sections of the region bordering Lake Drummond and the Dismal Swamp Canal (completed 1828). The swamp was surveyed in 1763 by George Washington.
