Petty Lake
| 15 miles away 1 PHOTO Our dive team Orange Twp Fire Dept.recently raised this old fishing boat from the West end of Pretty Lake. We think it's atleast 40-50 years old. It's painted by kids we think and has the name ''gerbers'' and ''MGA'' painted on the bottom. If you know any history on it contact me 260-854-3003... I had a great aunt who lived on Pretty Lake from the late 1930s to the late 1970s. I spent many summers there, and I loved it; this was in the late 50s to mid-late 60s. In the winter of 1959, we had a Corvair, and my mother drove it out onto the middle of the lake; it was frozen that far down. She and my aunt were ice fishing. I was a teen in the 60s, and I heard Sonny and Cher's ''I Got You Babe'' for the first time while laying on a wooden raft anchored in the lake from the porch of a cottage on shore. There used to be an entertainment area known as ''Merkling's Beach'', which had diving boards, rafts, and a 96-step water toboggan slide the you could rent the ''sleds'' for 50 cents for half an hour. What fun it was. I remember my cousin hunting a lot, and my aunt would have fried fish, turtle, deer, and homegrown foods due to the fertility of the land. I've not been back there in over 20 years, but a flood of warm, wonderful memories came when I returned.... |

Lake James
| 19 miles away Is there any fishing shops around Lake James?...Lake James is a great sand bottom glacial lake. Pokagen State Park borders the lake in two basins. Boat traffic is heavy on the weekends in the summer. At all other times it is great. There is much to do there in the winter as there is in the summer if you enjoy winter sports or other winter outdoor activities such as hiking, skating, cross country skiing, sledding, etc. The proximity of Pokagen State Park is a plus.... |
