Once the Google GPS gets you there this looks like a good place. It is big. I didn't have much luck but it was extremely windy and wasn't the best conditions. I look forward to going back when the weather is better.

It's a nice hidden gem that isn't marked but you can find it on Google Maps. The dam is easily accessible, has a clean rest area and a boat launch. The lake is deceptively large with plenty of fishing and boating opportunities. It seems like it is a limited horsepower lake. Will visit again, Highly...
