Hog Island is a wildlife sanctuary. It’s a nesting ground for the water birds we enjoy watching from the cottage. Humans can look but not go onto the island. On a calm day many of our guests have kayaked there. Please be careful…the lake conditions often change significantly since the depth changes dramatically as you head toward the far side of Hog Island. Please refer to the article in the Welcome Folder about the man and small son who needed to be rescued by the Coast Guard because of the sudden change in conditions. Life vests, whistles and cell phones (in waterproof cases) are recommended safety equipment.
