Welcome to
Lake Latonka

Come with your host

Property owners and their immediate families may use community areas. Other friends and relatives must be accompanied by the property owner. Know your host's lot number and subdivision name.

Drive slowly

The speed limit on Lake Latonka roads is 15 mph. The dam is a restricted area: no pedestrian, vehicle or fishing access.

Respect the community

Keep pets leashed off their owner's property. Clean up after your group. Contact the association before bringing a large group to the beach or park.

Check before boating

Lake access is private. Watercraft must belong to property owners and display the required current LLPOA stickers. Do not bring an outside boat or personal watercraft.

Wake hours

11 a.m.–7 p.m. Maximum 35 mph except designated no-wake areas and within 75 feet of shore.

No-wake hours

7:01 p.m.–10:59 a.m. Motorized boats must travel no faster than 5 mph, aiming to create no wake.

Direction of travel

Motorized boats travel counterclockwise, with left turns. Cross the lake using a direct perpendicular path when necessary.

Safety essentials

No jet skis or wave runners. Towed watersports require a qualified driver and an observer age 12 or older. Skiers, wakeboarders and tubers must wear Coast Guard-approved life jackets; children under 13 must wear a life jacket on moving motorized boats.
