nice lake, easy to get to.  Fits a couple of canoes.  Some marshy area where people train their dogs.  Fishing in 2007 was expected to be not the best due to the drought in 2004.  We went twice in 2007, kids had a couple of bites, could see some people catching some smaller fish.  Good lake for the ''I only have a few hours before the kids games'' kinda place.
