Its called Trout Lake and its in Kensington Metro Park. You walk about 1/2 into the woods and you come to calm lake that is about 800 meters long. The water is very calm and not being a big lake, the water temperature is never cold from June to the end of September. There are no motor boats allowed and its real safe to swim.<div style="clear:both;"></div>https://community.usms.org/thread/265419?ContentTypeID=1Tue, 16 Jun 2009 05:23:23 GMT3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:87df8d66-1233-4007-b60a-1a54ec701f26orca1946Try to look for the state site for more info.
