Please Bare with us as we are currently moving our site to a new server. 

Our site will be undergoing changes, but hopefully will stay the same for the most part.

 

Our biggest issue as of now, is moving items such as links to our outside sources. Some of these including video players and some news update feeds.

 

We still plan to continue serving you with the latest Indian Lake news and events for the 2012 season, as soon as everything is up and running again accordingly!

 

 

Thank You for your patience!

The lake, originally known as Lewistown Reservoir, was built in 1851 to supply water to the Miami and Erie Canal to maintain a necessary four-foot water depth. With the coming of the train era and decline of the canal system, the Ohio General Assembly dedicated the lake as a recreation area by the name of Indian Lake, OH on April 9, 1898. The same train era that brought the end to the Canal system, now brought tourists to the area.
