Park. Large, Deep, freshwater Lake. Limited Shoreline access, but there is a
small pontoon by the car park and a number of fishing platforms. This lake is
also home to swans, ducks an other waterfowl, which causes some muck/feathers
etc at the edge of the lake in some places. There is a model yacht club that
meets here on Sundays, but I don't have any more information on them.

Anything else to add?: Due to the size and shape of the lake, it is possible
for boats to be hidden around corners, but this is hardly a problem.
Also there are a few small islands in the lake, which makes this lake unsuitable
for unpowered sailing.
