Lake Le Ann Community Area

A little about our lakes...
Lake LeAnn is a private lake community composed of two basins– North and South – that offer over 9 miles of shoreline and 460 water acres. The lake depth runs from 9 to 40 feet with South Lake LeAnn several feet higher in elevation than North Lake LeAnn. The two lakes are separated by a dam.
This man-made all-sport lake is situated on U. S. Highway 12 between Somerset Center and the village of Moscow, along the route of the “Old Sauk Trail” which was traveled by the early settlers moving west from Detroit to the area of Chicago. Rich in history and widely known for its natural beauty this territory was first known to the Indians and later was traveled by LaSalle and the French fur traders.
Acquisition of the 1250 acres which encompasses the Lake LeAnn development involved 14 farm properties. Brush and timber clearing, excavation, construction of roads and dams were started in July 1960. Completion was scheduled for September 1962. The Lake LeAnn community now boasts over 2000 lots within 15 subdivisions which are self governed through a property owners association.
Featuring clear spring water, sandy beaches, and generously sprinkled with hardwood and pine, Lake LeAnn truly offers up a beautiful panorama.
