“Not the best name”
Sep. 2021
We walked around the lake in the summer. It was really nice. There was a great beach there which is quite busy in the summer. My only thought is the name of the lake. I am pretty sure there is one weekend a year that I do not want to be there. Just sayin.
“Nice beach”
Aug. 2021
Stayed at a nearby Hotel and enjoyed the beach with my son. The beach was clean and did have some locals attending but not over crowded. Washrooms were open and clean. You can rent paddle boats and kayaks nearby. I believe it was 12 dollars for an hour. There was two beautiful Trumpeter Swans in the lake. The water is clear at the beach. There may be blood suckers if you go out of the beach area as my son had something on his foot when he got back to the Hotel. He loved the beach.
