Islands


The lake has three large islands.
In the widest part of the lake, there are two large islands, each about one square mile in size. And another smaller island near the main boat ramp and camp-site.
There is also another, which is sometimes partly connected to the surrounding land, but sometimes surrounded by lake water, depending on water levels.
