I love Emigrant lake! I grew up in Ashland and have been going to Emigrant for decades, DECADES! I go fishing here, swimming, my daughter loves the water slides. I like the large picnic areas that you can reserve for parties and family gatherings. My family loves the swimming areas and we can spend all day playing and swimming. On cooler days we go to the Government land and go fishing there. Emigrant lake has been a go to spot for my family for a very long time and I hope it's around for decades to come.

Great place to catch bass. The row boaters with the microphone are very annoying.
