Two Lakes. One River. A Special Place.

White Ash Lake and North White Ash Lake offer the best of both worlds—the recreational opportunities of two beautiful lakes combined with the natural character and beauty of the Apple River flowing through them.

Every season brings something new to discover, enjoy and appreciate on the White Ash Lakes.

Spring awakens the lakes and fills the air with anticipation for another summer. As the ice disappears and nature comes alive, thoughts turn to warm days, time on the water and another season of making memories with family and friends.

Summer is when the lakes truly come alive. Cast a line and enjoy some fishing, take a swim, paddle a canoe or kayak, or head out for waterskiing and cruising. Explore the shoreline, watch for wildlife and birds, enjoy a spectacular sunset, or simply spend the day on your favorite watercraft. Most of all, summer is a time to gather with old friends, make new ones and enjoy everything the lakes have to offer.

Fall brings a different kind of beauty and tranquility. The changing leaves create a spectacular backdrop for sunrises and sunsets, while the sounds of swans, geese and ducks signal the approach of another winter. It is a time to slow down, reflect on another memorable summer and appreciate the natural beauty that surrounds White Ash and North White Ash Lakes.

Winter transforms the lakes into a peaceful outdoor playground. Ice fishing, snowmobiling, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing and ice skating provide plenty of ways to enjoy the season. And when the snow and ice settle in, there is a special solitude that comes with the lakes resting until another year begins.

From the first signs of spring to the quiet beauty of winter, White Ash Lake and North White Ash Lake offer something special in every season.

Come experience the White Ash Lakes and discover where the Apple River brings it all together.
