   If you are really looking to get away from the race and want to escape to a place with beautiful, clear water, Laura Lake should be on the short list. The lake has a pretty isolated location, a lot of state land and there are not too many homes on its shores. There are no high traffic roads around the lake either, so you get some true Northwoods peace and quiet when you live on Lake Laura. The water levels do fluctuate quite a bit which exposes a nice sand shoreline when the water is down. There are some dirt roads that service that lake which make access a little trickier. The water clarity is over 15 feet and the water has a pretty awesome color to it. With the limited number of homes on the lake, the density numbers are really good. There are only 7.5 owners per mile of shoreline and over 17 acres of water per owner. For more information on Lake Laura you can check out my Blog Post.
