About Lake Independence

Located in Marquette County, Michigan

Lake Independence is a 1,860-acre lake nestled next to Lake Superior in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. Marquette, Michigan, is only 31 miles away.

The closest location for medical emergencies, Up Health System, is 31 miles away. The Sawyer International Airport is 48 miles away.

Life on the Water

Primarily fed by the Yellow Dog River, the lake is known for its yellow water tint. The lake is large enough for fishing, swimming, waterskiing, paddle boarding, and more.

Anglers can expect to catch fish such as black crappie, bluegill, smallmouth bass, and brown trout. The lake’s weedy bottom gives these fish a space to thrive in.

What's Nearby?

While you could keep entertained on the lake, you may want to venture into town and check out all the activities and restaurants.

Big Bay, Michigan, is situated on the northwest corner of the lake and has a lighthouse open to the public for tours. It offers visitors a chance to take a photo of the lake from a bird’s eye view.

If you’re looking to stay active, the surrounding area offers numerous biking and hiking trails. Visitors will be fully immersed in the landscape of Michigan and experience the leaves changing in the fall or see all the wildflowers bloom in the spring.

Enjoy a bite to eat at one of the local hotspots like Lumberjack Tavern, Hungry Hollow Cafe, and Thunder Bay Inn.
