About
There is plenty to do on this large reservoir along the Kaskaskia River in Shelby County. At 11,100 acres, there are tons of coves and inlets for anglers. Swim at one of the public beaches to cool off on a hot day. Launch your boat or rent one for a day on the water.
Get everything you need at three full-service marinas along the lake. From there, take your boat on the water for a leisurely day of sun and fishing. Cast your line for bass, crappie, carp, and sauger.
Play in the sun at five man-made, sandy beaches. Spread out your towel and sunbathe for a few hours, or set up a volleyball net to play a game. The cool, deep water of the lake is the perfect way to take a dip in the summer months.
Head to historic Shelbyville to see the beautiful courthouse. Tour the mansion of Horace M. Tallman while you're
