This is a great wisconsin lake that has it all. My family has been coming up since 1954 and now I am retired here seasonally. The great bonus is also being connected by navagitable water to big Lake Chetac and Little Birch. Whether you're looking for fishing, waterskiing, tubing, jet skiing or just relaxing you will find it here. This is a rural community in the northwoods of wisconsin and you will find the local people and resorts very friendly and helpful. And if you want to pick up the pace a bit with a short trip out of town you'll probably find whatever your looking for within 20 miles. It really is a small PIECE OF HEAVEN!!!!!!!
