Little Green lake

Little Green Lake is 425 acres with a max depth of 28', and a median level of 9'. Little ​Green Lake is a wonderful fishing lake offering Muskie, Walleye, Northern, Large ​Mouth Bass, Blue Gill, and Crappie. Little Green is a great lake for water sports and ​beach area right near Shady Oaks Campground. In 2003, a destratification project ​was installed by the DNR and Little Green Lake Protection and Rehabilitation District. ​This project is proving to be a great asset to the lake in combination with weed ​harvesting by improving water quality and fishing.


Little Green Lake Protection and Rehabilitation District is also pursuing aquatic plant ​restoration and retention pond projects.


The Lake District is making great efforts in improving lake quality for future ​generations.
