a few counties from me is Lake Dexter, one of the largest man- made lakes in Wisconsin. It wasn't the largest when they built it, but it grew on its own and now you can't even see from one side to the other! i don't know if there's an exact size or anything because it's still growing. i'm sure if you look it up on-line, you'll find out more. all i know is that it's great for fishing, swimming, boating, and ice fishing.
