About
Gets quite deep quite quickly, but is a healthy lake and quite weedy, even in the deep. If you're okay with that, the water is clean and cold, the lake is very quiet. Stunningly beautiful in the autumn when the leaves change.
Location
Getting there
Car park is sand/gravel but smooth. Everything is graded toward the water. Small lot with direct water access. Off the 511 the road is single track and dirt, but passable for cars..
Accessibility
Clear access to the water with no barriers. Occasional people fishing from shore. Bonus: porta potty on site.

Frequently asked questions
Is this lake safe for swimming?
Check the Conditions tab for surface state and wind conditions. Review the Quality tab if this is a designated bathing water. Always read recent community reports for local advice.
How cold is the water?
Check the Temperature tab for the current estimate and 7-day trend. Lakes hold heat longer than rivers but can develop a thermocline. The water below the surface can be dramatically colder.
What should I bring?
A tow float for visibility (especially important where boats operate), warm layers for after, and consider a wetsuit in colder months. Check for designated swimming areas.
