Tips from locals
This place is special because its an inland Lake that gets warm faster then the big lake. Its set inside of sand dunes and within a few steps gets deep fast! Also this is a two for one deal, as its attached to Lake Michigan via a small stream.
A locals favorite (and secret, sort of). The lake drops off quickly like a bowl but has a shallow "river" connecting it to Lake MI. This is part of the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Park and does require a parking pass. It's a short hike around the lake or a nice refreshing swim across the lake.
