About this water

Loon Lake Day use is a popular picnicking area and swimming beach on a peaceful lake.  The 90-acre lake is mostly surrounded by National Forest System lands. The surrounding landscape is a reminder of the glacial heritage of Michigan. The landscape was deposited and sculpted during the last glacial retreat.There is a short nature walk from the parking area that leads to Island Lake Campground. The terrain along the trail is steep.Brochure and Map: This brochure is set to print on 11 x 17 paper, landscape (wide) orientation.  To print on 8 1/2 x 11 paper set the print area to "shrink to printable area", this will make the text on the page smaller.Flickr Photo Album
