Woman Lake covers about 5,500 acres in Cass County, on the east side of Longville, with Girl and Child lakes connected to it. North and east of town are Little Boy, Boy, Wabedo and Inguadona lakes, and twenty miles west, Ten Mile Lake at Hackensack runs to 208 feet deep.
Most lodging here is family cabin resorts rented by the week in summer. Walleye, pike, bass and muskie draw anglers, and a handful of Longville guides fish these lakes.
