Townline Lake - Mecosta County

• Public

Townline Lake is on the Big Rapids/ Colfax Township line in Mecosta County. This Michigan lake is 73 acres and has reported depths of up to 52 feet. It is conveniently located just a couple miles outside the city of Big Rapids.

The lake is sparsely populated, only a few homes and cottages along its shoreline. It is scenic, but largely goes unnoticed by those traveling to one of many larger Mecosta County lakes, including neighboring Clear Lake and Hillview Lake

The DNR maintains a public boat launch on the east side of the lake. The site is small with limited parking. When I passed by the public access the other day, I noticed that the parking lot was filled with empty boat trailers. That’s a good sign regarding the fishing.
