Lily Lake County Park
At 150-acres, Lily Lake Park is small but
beautiful. The 40-acre lake is a favorite
fishing destination for electric motor
boats only, making for a quiet birding
spot. The park offers a sheltered picnic
area and an accessible fishing pier. The
forest has
showy wildflower
displays
in the
spring.
There’s also
a nice tamarack
bog and
rolling hills
to explore.
Look in
flooded
fields around the park in spring for
migrating shorebirds.
