A rather great lake
As the sixth largest freshwater lake in the United States, it should come as no surprise that Lake Champlain's fabulous location, stunning shorelines, and deep waters lends itself to myriad of outdoor activities, both on the water and off.
From summertime fishing to ice skating, the beautiful waters of Lake Champlain offer a number of ways to enjoy one of the largest lakes in the nation. The lake is famous not just for its lake monster, but also for boating, sea kayaking, fishing in winter and spring, birding, and of course, swimming. Anglers come for the amazing bass fishing, which ranks among the top 5 in Bassmaster's best bass lakes in the Northeast.
