Overview
Lake Gogebic is a natural lake in MI. It is managed by Michigan DNR.
The basin is characterized by about 13,280 acres of surface area. Shoreline and bottom character vary from protected coves and flats to deeper water, supporting a mix of open-water and nearshore habitats.
Lake Gogebic supports recreational boating and fishing. Public access is through area ramps, parks, and shoreline facilities where provided by the operator. Fishing and boating regulations are set by the relevant state wildlife agency.
