Lake Type: Kettle / Glacial
Area: 576 acres
Lake Orient.: North-South
Max. Depth: 69 ft
Notes:

Whitmore Lake is boardered by the town of Whitmore Lake and straddles both Livingston and Washtenaw counties. A moderately sized public access ramp is indicated on the following Google map, while private/pay launching is available through a local marina. The lake has a modest to moderate sail presence, however powerboats predominate in the summer months. The public/DNR ramp is has adequate (but not abundant) room for sailboat set-up. Boats larger than mid-sized centerboard classes (i.e. >21') may encounter difficulty in both set-up and launch. Once on the lake, the water is relatively open, allowing for some nice reaching, however wind vectors will vary near the shores, typical for kettle lakes.
