Little Lake is a lake located in Door County, Wisconsin.[1] The lake is found on Washington Island in Green Bay of Lake Michigan. Little Lake has a surface area of 41acres and a max depth of 6feet.[2] Most of the lake is shallow and has a bottom that is muck. Although the northwest corner of the lake is only 250feet from Lake Michigan, the lake is spring fed. It is a recursive lake, due to it being a lake on an island. The shore around the lake is partially owned by the Door County Land Trust.[3] This area is designated as a Wisconsin State Natural Area by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources.[4]
There are seven lakes in Wisconsin that are named Little Lake.[5]
