Review:
Little Lake Butte des Morts is a great place to spend the day boating on the lake, taking a cool dip, hanging out at the recreational park, or fishing. There are two public boat landings, and the lake is popular with fisherman looking to catch Largemouth Bass, Catfish, Walleye, or Northern Pike. During the winter, the lake becomes a popular site for ice fishing as well. The name, which was given by French settlers, gives the lake a bit of mystique. Butte des Morts translates to “mounds of the dead” and refers to a nearby Native American burial mound. Map
