Beautiful beach and hiking/running/biking trails.

Absolutely fantastic place for young families. The lake is shallow, the beach is well maintained, with lots of good options nearby. It is only 5 minutes out of Morden, so if you need something in a pinch, you can easily grab it from town.

ive visited this lake my whole life, as a seasonal camper there for 6 years up until 15 years ago, some of my best memories are here, unfortunately the boating and fishing activity on this lake has been unchecked for too long, and now there is no motors allowed, the lake needs an aeration system to keep it from growing too much algae as well. I still love this lake but it needs some attention.

It's a local beach with a decent view. I sled there cause it's close to town, but boy is that shore rough with rocks and mud when the water is low..
