Lake
Gogebic is Michigan's largest inland lake located in the far western
end of the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Lake Gogebic is a
four-season vacation gem - still undiscovered by many. Lake Gogebic
is in two counties and in two time zones. The north half of the lake
is in Ontonagon County, Bergland Township, and the Eastern Time
zone. The south half of the lake is in Gogebic County, Marenisco
Township, and the Central Time zone.
In 13,380 acres of prime fishing water, there are walleye,
smallmouth bass, northern pike, jumbo perch and some whitefish.
Throughout the season, the Chamber hosts a tagged fish contest with
thousands of dollars in prizes.
This region is also a prime hunting hot spot for deer, bear,
small game and birds. The autumn colors are spectacular. Waterfalls
abound and many are very easily accessed. Honeymooners will enjoy
searching out the more remote falls. Lake Superior's shores are
close by too.
Families
will enjoy Lake Gogebic's summer water sports, camping, sightseeing
and hiking the surrounding timberland. The area is full of historic
sites and history. The wildflowers and wildlife are everywhere.
Biking, 4-wheelers and walking are a way of life.
Winter is a "world of its own" with an annual
snowfall of nearly 300 inches. Lake Gogebic is situated within a
vast snowmobile trail system extending throughout the Upper
Peninsula. Cross country ski trails are abundant and five major
downhill ski facilities are less than a hour's drive. It is a great
place to use snowshoes.
The
evenings are often full of Northern Lights and a wolf's cry. The
dress is casual and the attitudes are friendly. Bring sweaters for
summer evenings and expect beautiful warm days. Winters are harsh
and fall is cool, but the seasons are amazing.

A pile of lake-effect snow is on its way, maybe as much as 12
inches. Don't run out to the garage and pull the covers off
the sleds yet as the trails will not open until early
December. We'll keep you posted!
