Countryside Lakeとは 意味・読み方・使い方

Countryside Lake is a manmade lake located in Lake County Illinois. The lake is in the center of the Countryside neighborhood and is a private lake to members of the CLA (Countryside Lake Association) and their guests. Countryside Lake was created in 1926 by putting a dam at the end of a boggy stream. After the dam was created dredging equipment was brought to clear the surrounding area to expand the stream into a lake. Since Countryside Lake is manmade it is very shallow, at a maximum depth of 10 feet (3.0 m) the lake is mostly recreational. The lake is around 120 acres (49 ha) so it is on the smaller side for a lake. Since the lake is so small it only allows 15 horsepower for boats on the lake, this is to keep the shoreline from deteriorating. Countryside Lake has one beach that has a lifeguard for most days of the summer months. At the beach there is a playground, horseshoes, and numerous docks for boats.
