my family and I have been going up to "the Crotch" for several years now. I would highly recommend it. The guy who owns it is named Ward -- great guy who is happy to give you advice on locations, tackle, etc. 99% of the lake is undeveloped so if you like nature and a mellow vacation this is the place. You can always catch fish there, walleye and sm bass being predominant species. Lmb's too in the weedy areas, caught a 5 lber last year fishin for pike. Lookup Tumblehome Lodge if you haven't already for more info. My family will be up there 1st week in Aug. There are also 3-4 natural beaches around the lake that are great for a picnic or swimming.
