Good for a walk or picnic, lake has fish in it for sure, but only about 1/3 of it is accessible since the golf course locks the North side and you have to bushwhack to get to the western side. Very shallow and weedy, decent spot for catching panfish with kids, but not so much for bass, is doable, but there's usually 5+ other anglers trying to do the same thing so it's a highly pressured lake. Also, no hate, but there are a lot of bucket fishermen that frequent this lake (catch and keep) and I doubt MDNR restocks this lake.

This is a great little park for spending a part of your day. I've seen a couple of people out here fishing, but I can't say if it's a popular place to swim as of yet.

Great place for walking and relaxing by the lake. As of 2021, there is a very nice paved path that starts at the parking lot, loops around the lake, through the trees and connects with the subdivision on the other side. Definitely worth checking out!

Recently added restrooms and paved lot make this little gem of a park with lake accessible to more residents. Rapidly melting ice on this warm February day.

Nice calm lake good for picnics hanging out, fishing for sport unless you going for panfish. Plenty of cobra chicken to hiss at you if you get too close small nature walk only downsides can't swim and no bathrooms
