Courtesy No-Wake Zone

Due to the recent rains and the resulting high water levels, we ask, as a courtesy, that you maintain the lake as a "no wake" zone to prevent shoreline erosion and further damage to docks and equipment and watercraft on piers.

We'll keep monitoring the level and inform you of any changes.

Heavy Rains and Water Levels

The heavy rains didn't bypass Birch Lake this past weekend. Our rain gauge showed a total of 7" from Friday through Sunday. We've been tracking the lake level for the Discovery Center since 2010. The only time the water level was higher was when they installed the gauge in May 2014.

If you can't make it up here to check out your dock or boat, you may want to contact a neighbor on the lake and ask them to take a look.
