Lake Chemung Facts:

chemungaerial.jpg - 24733 Bytes

Lake Chemung is approximately 320 acres in size and is located in Livingston County.

The bird associated with our lake is the Blue Heron.

The lake is a spring-fed freshwater lake and is approximately
70-80 feet in its deepest portion.

The lake is an all-sports lake and is also known for its excellent fishing.

Livingston County is home for hot air balloons....from the Michigan Challenge Balloon Festival each year in June to the site of several balloons quietly sailing along in the summer sky. 

When the wind is right, balloonists travel over Lake Chemung...dipping down to make their baskets touch the lake.

Lake Residents...

We need for you to complete the following survey about your water well...

The LCRA needs residents to provide information about their water well so that our lake manager can determine if the chemical 2,4-D can be used to control nuisance Eurasian Watermilfoil in the lake.   Please help us provide the MDEQ with information so that they can determine if we can use this chemical.  Thank you for your help.

2008 Boater Safety Classes - Schedule and Locations in Livingston County


Anglers and Boaters:

You are an important partner in preventing the spread of fish diseases and other aquatic nuisance species

Anglers and boaters can take some easy steps to prevent the spread of fish diseases and other aquatic nuisance species such as zebra mussels by taking the following steps to help prevent the spread of the virus:

  • Clean boats, trailers, and other equipment thoroughly between fishing trips to keep from transporting undesirable fish pathogens and organisms, from one water body to another with special care to clean fishing equipment when you are done fishing known locations of the fish diseases. A light bleach solution is an excellent disinfectant for cleaning your equipment.
  • After cleaning allow boats, trailers, and other equipment to fully dry for 4 to 6 hours in the sun.
  • Do not move fish or fish parts from one body of water to another.
  • Do not release live bait into any water body.
  • Handle fish as gently as possible if you intend to release them and release them as quickly as possible.
  • Refrain from hauling the fish for long periods in live wells if you intend to release them.
  • Report unusual numbers of dead or dying fish to Michigan Department of Natural Resources Fisheries Division offices.
  • Educate other anglers about the measure they can take to prevent the spread of fish diseases and other aquatic nuisance species.
