Lake vacations: Top Destinations

Relax by the water on your lake vacation

A lake vacation offers serenity, peace of mind, and a chance to reconnect with nature on a break from the fast-paced hustle of everyday life. If you're interested in swimming, water sports, or hiking trails that offer brilliant views of the water, a summer lake vacation is the perfect fit. Winter lake vacations offer spectacular views of frozen lakes and opportunities for ice-fishing, ice-skating, trailblazing on snowshoes, and getting cozy in a cabin.
Activities to Try on Your Lake Vacations

Activities to Try on Your Lake Vacations

Whether it's Southern Lake Tahoe, California, or Grand Lake, Colorado; the Sierra Nevada and Rocky mountain ranges that surround lakes on the west coast are picture-perfect complements to the clear waters.

  • 1. Guided Lake Tours

    Gondolas, hot air balloons, and helicopters are wonderful ways to capture magnificent views of the crystal-blue waters and impressive peaks year-round.

  • 2. Fishing Adventures

    Whether you're looking to try something new or you're an experienced angler, many tour companies from Bigfork, Montana to Charlevoix, Michigan offer opportunities to get out on the water and try your hand at fly-fishing in the summer or ice-fishing in the winter. Make sure to check state laws to ensure you have the proper license to fish, or stick with reputable tour companies who can sort out the paperwork for you.

  • 3. Lake Vacations for Wine and Food Lovers

    If you enjoy the peacefulness of a lake vacation but aren't so keen on spending all of your time in the great outdoors, take advantage of the cultural and culinary attractions that many towns offer for visitors to popular lakes. Seneca, New York is surrounded by over 30 wineries and vineyards where guests can enjoy tastings, and the region is full of restaurants serving meals inspired by locally-sourced ingredients.

  • 4. Arts and Music

    The Seneca township hosts a weekly free summer concert series at the Lakefront Park Gazebo. Live music is a staple of many lakeside towns like Put-in-Bay, Ohio, where the arts council promotes local and regional artists throughout summer on the island for all visitors to enjoy.
