- ★★★★★over 2 years agoBest lake I’ve been to. Had some good fishing and really fun islands. Anyway here’s some cool lake facts. Did you know…lakes can die? Once formed, lakes do not stay the same. Like people, they go through different life stages—youth, maturity, old age, and death. All lakes are either open or closed. If water leaves a lake by a river or other outlet, it is open. All freshwater lakes are open. If water only leaves a lake by evaporation, the lake is closed. Closed lakes usually become saline (salty). This is because as the water evaporates, it leaves behind solids—mostly salts. The Great Salt Lake, in the U.S. state of Utah, is the largest saline lake in North America. The lowest lake in the world is the Dead Sea, on the edge of Israel and Jordan. The surface level is 418 m below sea level. The highest lake in the world is the crater lake of Ojos del Salado, on the border of Chile and Argentina at 6,390 m above sea level. The deepest lake in the world is Lake Baikal in Siberia, Russia, it is 1,637 m at its deepest point. The longest lake in the world is Lake Tanganyika in Africa at 660 km and it is also the second deepest lake. Anyway 10/10
- ★★★★★over 2 years agoStunning scenic view around the lake… Calm and peaceful atmosphere
- ★★★★★over 1 year agoOnly giving 3 stars because when we got to our reserved spot 2 dogs were tied to a tree and when my husband got out of our truck the owner told him that the dogs would bite us. They were tied to a tree that was on our reserved spot. We have a small child and I wasn’t going to take any chances. The guy up front at the gate had already left so we couldn’t get a different spot. Other then that it’s a beautiful place. Nice big lake,showers, playground for the little ones, areas to hike in, boat docks, etc.
