I'm not going to lie to you, I am a huge fan of the lake. What's not to like? The nice sun, warm water, endless activities. There are few places I would rather be than on a lake. Here are a few reasons why lake season is the best season:

1. It is typically beautiful weather when you are at the lake.

It is the perfect time to get a tan, and relax while doing it. There's no hassle of going all the way down south to a beach when you can drive to the nearest lake.

2. The water is so peaceful.

The lake is not only full of fun games and activities for everyone to do, but it also is a great way to get some peace and quiet.

3. It is a great time with friends.

There's no sense in going to the lake by yourself. Bring some friends and have a big get together. The lake is meant for friends and family to have a great time together.

4. There's a high chance you can bring your dog on the boat.

What is better than having your dog on the boat with you? It's great having your dog with you anywhere, but the boat too? Nothing beats pups playing around in the water.

5. You can water ski.

Water skiing isn't the easiest thing in the world, but once you get the hang of it there is not many things better. It's a thrill being out on the water.

6. You can go tubing with friends.

There's nothing quite as great/scary as getting thrown off a tube while holding on for dear life. It might be scary, but you never fail to get back on again.

7. Night boating is a must.

If you think boating during the day is peaceful...you should try boating at night. It's so quiet with no distractions around. Sometimes there's even firework shows over the lake and you can't get a much better seat than out on the lake itself.

8. Oh, the bonfires.

After a long day of boating, take a chance to sit down with your friends and family by a bonfire. Roast a marshmallow..or five. Just take some time at the end of the day to hang out with friends and family and relax.

9. Catch the first fish of the season.

If you're impatient like me fishing is not so easy to do. It is an awesome feeling once you get a bite though. You might even catch yourself some dinner.

10. Taking a dip in the lake water is so refreshing.

Unlike the ocean water the lake water is not freezing cold. It is a nice temperature for you to take a nice dip in to cool off. Everyone should take a nice swim now and again.

11. If you're lucky enough to have access to a jet ski, take advantage.

Not everyone is lucky enough to have a jet ski laying around. If you do have a jet ski take advantage because it is a great thrill to ride around the lake on the jet ski wherever you want to go.
