Unlimited Water Fun at Johnson Lake, Nebraska
If you are planning the ultimate lake getaway, consider renting a Johnson Lake lake house in Nebraska. No matter which water sport you prefer, or whether you want to try them all, the 2,068 acres of water and the generous boating policies at this lake give you the freedom to play your way.
Watersports Galore
Your research on lake vacations has likely revealed that not all lakes are created equal. Many lakes favor either watercraft or swimmers, but not both. Some do not allow the use of motorized boats. This is not the case at Johnson Lake. This reservoir allows all types of boats and watercraft, including fishing boats, sailboats, paddle boats, speed boats, kayaks, canoes, inner tubes, water skis, wakeboards, jet skis, and anything else you want to sail, float, row, or drive across the lake. The 28 miles of shoreline host a swimming beach, public boat ramps, and three marinas, and many of the lake house rental properties have private docks. For motorized craft, two on-water fuel locations are available to keep your engine running all day. Basically, if you can dream it, you can do it at Johnson Lake.
Fishing is a popular pastime here. You can catch channel catfish, crappie, flathead catfish, largemouth bass, northern pike, perch, striped bass, walleye, white bass, and wipers, but the lake is known across the region for its white bass and walleye fishing. And access to the lake has been improved in recent years, cultivating a great environment for quality fishing. For example, fish cleaning stations are available in two locations long the lakefront, and there are two handicap-accessible fishing piers. Bathrooms and drinking fountains round out the lake amenities, giving you the freedom to spend the whole day.
Area Adventures
The area around your Johnson Lake lake house has more to do than just water activities. There is lots of wildlife to see around the lake, and hunting is permitted. The Johnson Lake Hike and Bike Trail is a 10-mile loop of paved, off-road trail that rings the lake. The trail has gazebos and rest areas for taking a break from your hike or having a picnic, and lovely lake vistas along the path provide another way to enjoy the lake without being on the water.
Shopping and entertainment options aren’t far away. There is an 18-hole golf course near by, and several shops and restaurants around Johnson Lake provide all the necessities. For example, Captain’s Quarters is a one-stop shop that has everything visitors need, including snacks, ice, life-vest rental, boat rental, personal watercraft rental, watercraft repair, fuel, and park permits. They also provide access to the lake via boat ramps and public docks. The LakeShore Marina Bar and Grille is a full-service restaurant with frequent live entertainment that also sells park permits and has boat ramps/slips for public use.
If you rent a lake house at Johnson Lake over Independence Day, you’re in for a treat. July 4th is a real event on the lake, with boat parades where you can decorate your own boat and compete for prizes or simply enjoy the spectacle. There is also an annual fireworks show that draws people from surrounding cities. Fireworks over the lake are the ultimate way to celebrate America’s independence, because the ripples of the lake’s surface refract the light to multiply the effect of the stunning light show.
Rent a Johnson Lake lake house for your next trip and get the freedom to do the lake your way. You’re sure to have your best lake experience yet.
