The lake is a beautiful setting for the Hilton and the Monona Terrace conference center. A tour boat is available not too far from the hotel. More

I live by this lake. Its disgusting!! Due to the location of the lake, runoff from the street is a huge issue. Its very polluted. The weeds that grow in it make it impossible to swim in. The algae is outrageous. If you want lake itch be my guest and jump in. More

Good views and excellent fishing, canoeing, & kayaking More

Nice deep lake. Sailing is nice on this lake and there is room for speedboats at the same time. Over 9,000 square acres of water. Over 80 feet deep. Good fishing too. More

Union terrace is one of the most romantic places in Madison. It's a must go to have a beer there, waiting for the sunset, if weather permits More

Great parks along the way and a good viewing spot for fireworks during the summer. More

Most travelers drive by it on their way to somewhere else. There is good fishing and some restaurants that are ok too. More

It is a great lake in the heart of Madison. you can use for recreation and fishing. One of my favorite spots is on Union's Terrerace. More

It would be a great lake, except for the blooming green algae from lawn fertilizer runoff. Water quality so bad it's not even ski-able. More
