     People from Big Rapids love to come to Cole Lake, and you'll stumble on a pretty lake called Whipple Lake. This lake is so wonderful. Why not camp at White River Roughing Area Campground since you're here at Cole Lake; the Newaygo County Snowmobile Trail offers hiking at its best. There's wonderful hiking along the Hungerford Cross Country Ski Trail; Super 8 Big Rapids MI is a good spot to get some rest. Through the warmest time of the year here at Cole Lake,  
   high temperatures ordinarily get into the 80's. When the night sets in temperatures descend down into the 50's. Highs during the wintertime are mostly in the 20's while Cole Lake nighttime low temperatures through the wintertime are in the 0's.
So much cool stuff to do here at Cole Lake, too great to be true. If you want to play some golf, you're in luck because Intimidator Golf Course is close by, and if you come at the right time of year, Pine River offers
 
               some brilliant whitewater. Do go to Toogood Lake in close proximity to Cole Lake, it's a picturesque lake, and if you're looking for some flowing water? Try Ewing Creek. This lake is so wonderful.
Big Bend Park is a great local campground, and if you need a place to stay Holiday Inn BIG RAPIDS is a great choice. Cole Lake gets a normal amount of yearly rain; all through September this area sees the most rain, and February is when it's the driest.

Pine River
17 miles away
Actually, the best paddling on the Pine River is below Lincoln, and especially in the section from Dobson Bridge to Low Bridge (approximately 21 miles). there are numerous CI rapids from about 20 minutes US from Dobson to about 20 minutes US from Low Bridge. Unfortunately, due to livery traffic the river is kept cleared to excess. Most of the leaning trees and logjams that make padding interesting have been removed so the drunken rental boat paddlers don't get into trouble....
