Named after the Aboriginal place for 'lagoon-like', Miena and surrounding communities Liawenee and Waddamana have a strong Aboriginal presence and introduced trout to Great Lake in 1890s.

In 1911, the Hydro-Electric Commission of Tasmania constructed three dam walls to provide water supply to the nearby Waddamana Power Station and formed the current lake of Great Lake. Miena has the largest population of permanent residents of the Central Highlands communities and is the centre of the major fishing lakes such as Arthurs Lake, Penstock Lagoon or Little Pine Lagoon.
