Pier, Donnell Lake, Mich., photo by shsukatsfan.
Sunrise, summer of 1983. In case you were wondering, Donnell Lake lies in central Cass County in southwest Michigan, 1 mile southeast of the town of Vandalia. The 4,659-acre watershed drains to Christiana Creek which flows south to the St. Joseph River. (DNR Fishery Report on the Donnell Lake)

I’m lost for words… except maybe beautiful, stunning, excellent.
A very beautiful sunrise.
I grew up there. Loved waterskiing on that lake. It is still just beautiful. Great picture!
My Grandparents lived there, it was wonderful to be able spend summers on the lake! Beautiful
I LOVE THAT LAKE, I GREW UP THERE IN THE 80’S
My sister drowned in that lake in the late 70s–my family had a cottage there. Beautiful pictures. Thanks.
