This lake is so wonderful. Golden Lake is magnificent enough

               a friendly staff.
Interesting geology is available here; Bend Glacier is close to Golden Lake; if you come at the right time of year, Squaw Creek offers some glorious whitewater.

Winopee Lake
17 miles away
Went to Winopee lake this weekend...it was a little dissapointing because the lake is about 45% covered with reeds and lilly pads. The Eastern shore is the only one you can accesst the water without having to wade through reeds. There is quite a few algae blooms so swimming isn't an option. Overall, the view was nice but not spectacular. There are three decent campsites at the lake, popular with horse camps. The best of the three sites is the one on the Eastern bank, take the first trail you come accross before reaching the junction for sno-shoe lake. The second and third campsites are on the West bank and are a little harder to find...head for the clifs and you are there....
