    Beautiful lake and swimming area. No lifeguard so watch your kiddos. When you visit be prepared for wind gusts! Please dispose of trash.

    Very very small but quaint lake. Rented pontoon for a couple hours. Was worth it, even though it was small 2 hrs wasn't enough

    What a wonderful and beautiful place during late November. The weather ranged from cool and wet, to warm and sunny. We had fun kayaking and watching wildlife on the lake, especially the ducks. We rented a townhouse for a few days and it was very comfortable. I would highly recommend this place if you want to get away from the city. It's very quiet and peaceful here.
