My favorite lake in the Midwest is Storm Lake in Iowa, just because of how incredibly random it is surrounded by flat farmland.

Not the most original choice but being a yooper I’m biased towards Lake Superior. It’s cold to swim in but you get used to it and it’s always clean and clear. There’s a lot of nice beaches in Marquette too.
There’s a Superior beach in the Keweenaw peninsula in particular that’s my favorite though. It has beautiful “singing sands” and is shallow so it’s usually warmer water and has a really nice turquoise hue, almost Caribbean-like. And hardly anyone is ever there, only locals really know about it.
Love Lake Superior, the natural beauty along the North Shore and around the Apostle Islands is unmatched by anything else in the region. Blessed to have spent so much time there in my youth.
