    It is a wonderful place for peacefulness. It’s also a great lake for fishing if you do some research. I’ve got my legal limit on cats in about an hour during the frenzy. Wipers are a delicious treat sauteed in butter, salt, and pepper. I always let the Largemouth go. A well-read man can be a dangerous fisherman. My pops isn't a fan of eating the Large mouth- either am I. They are fun to give back to the community for a fun fight.

    We have been going to Lake Icaria for more years than I can count. It is a wonderful family campground and is surprisingly quiet. Fishing is usually pretty good but even if it isn't, it is a great place to just relax.

    Attended graduation party at open shelter. Windy but first warm day in awhile. Lots of sticks on sidewalk. Close to playground. Electricity available to plug in crock pots. Handicap accessible especially since there were wheelchair, crutches and motorized scooter in attendance. Close parking.
