This is a beautiful lake that is a haven for boaters and fisherman. If you are looking for a great place to spend the weekend and catch a lot of fish, this is certainly one of the best spots to try your luck.
The lake is incredibly popular, but we didn't find that it was terribly crowded. Once you arrive, it's easy to see why so many people make the trip. The quality of the fish was outstanding and it didn't take more than a few minutes to get our first nibble.
Everyone is very pleasant here and it's a great place to take the whole family for a great weekend getaway.
