Kosciusko County Lake Quality

There are 40 monitored lakes in Kosciusko County. The mix is varied enough that the county-level average tells you the broad strokes, not the choose-this-cabin specifics. No lake in Kosciusko County has enough sampling behind it for an A–F grade yet. The 40 monitored lakes below carry whatever clarity, phosphorus, and chlorophyll-a measurements exist.

Most of the county's monitored lakes are shallow, under 50 feet, which means wind keeps the water column mixed all summer and sediment-bound phosphorus releases back into the surface layer whenever the bottom is disturbed.
