This lake is named such for a reason, extremely clear water and beautiful surrounding areas! There's a great trail that goes basically all the way around the lake, and plenty of rowing boats to rent to enjoy time out on the lake. The water is COLD so if you expect to go swimming consider very carefully. This is a bucket list destination though, so make the trip happen! The campgrounds fill up extremely fast around here so day trip is probably a safe bet to enjoy the lake. However, there are also some awesome waterfalls in the area. A very special place to visit! Bring the sunscreen, sunglasses, and plan on a fun time in beautiful nature!
You won't be the only ones on the lake, so just keep that in mind. Lots of visitors but all...

When I tell the female attendant next to him I completed the waiver, she then tells me its no longer available and to wait until 1pm and to come back and ask if ones available then.

Β Β Β Read moreMy favorite lake of all. The history is amazing. Submerged trees that have stood under frigid water for 3000 years! It's not easy to comprehend that you're looking at trees that lived before Jesus walked the earth. It's not a lake to swim in. Unless you want to brave about 40 degree water. It's a glorious spot to quietly boat, no motors allowed, & to totally rest your soul. You can learn about this amazing place to experience on YouTube like I did. There's a guy (Dana Price) who's a real authority on this lake who taught me a lot about it. Enjoy Amberdog Productions videos & then head out for a glorious adventure. Pre-armed with knowledge about what you'll see will make your excursion...
