Big Lake, Small Community

This large lake has a very tight-knit community that gathers together throughout the year for one reason: their love of this lake. It isn't hard to see why as the activities you can do here are limitless!

Bring your pontoon and spend a day soaking up some sun or get a little waterskiing in. If you're more of a kayaking/canoeing fan, then don't fret, as that's popular here as well! Before you head out onto the water, make sure you grab a rod and reel! Anglers can expect to catch bluegill, walleye, as well as large and smallmouth bass.

Many festivals take place here and in the nearby town of Niles year-round, like the Hunter Ice Festival, the Niles Apple Festivals, and the Niles Bluegrass Festival.
