Dewart Lake is a 551-acre natural lake in Kosciusko County that was created during the last ice age that provides visitors with beautiful natural scenery and an array of outdoor recreation to enjoy. Well maintained by the Dewart Lake Protective Association, Dewart Lake rests at 868 feet above sea level, has a maximum depth of 82 feet, and offers excellent boating, fishing, canoeing, kayaking, and water-skiing, which are the main recreational activities on the lake. Dewart Lake is home to at least seven species of turtle, and hosts several long and short-term turtle studies, and also contains a large variety of fish species, drawing anglers from far and wide. Land-based adventures around the lake include plenty of hiking and mountain biking trails, such as the Winona Lake Trail System, as well as horseback riding, geocaching, and golf.
