Description: Its Sunday, Its Summer, Its off to enjoy a Michigan Lake. Pickerel Lake is one of those Michigan’s Lakes that share its name with so many other lakes in the state. The Pickerel Lake we are highlighting today is located in Garfield Township, Newaygo County, just north of the town of Newaygo. It is located next to Kimball Lake and within walking distance of Emerald Lake, Sylvan Lake and John Ford Lake. Pickerel Lake is named after a fresh water fish that is in the Pike family, known for its pointed snout with sharp teeth. The lake has 319 acres of surface water and has various depths up to 70 feet. This public lake can be busy as many people make use of the state boat launch on the southern side of the lake. The boat launch is a hard surface launch but is a somewhat tight launch site. Restrooms are available, along with limited parking. Pickeral Lake is home to Camp Newaygo, a popular summer girls camp. |
