The Indian Lake area was originally a cluster of natural lakes situated on the Miami River.  As the continental glaciers left Ohio, chunks of ice broke free, melted, and formed water-filled depressions called kettle lakes.  The resultant shallow, marshy, natural lakes in this region covered an area of 640 acres.  Among these were Old Indian Lake, Otter Lake, Black Lake, Sheep Pen Lake, Brush Lake, and Little Lake.

Today, Indian Lake is a 5,800 acre lake offered unlimited horsepower boating and features four public ramps and boat docks for rent.  Large wetlands known locally as the "game preserve," remain in the northeastern part of of Indian Lake.  Navigational channels have been cut through this area.  The wetlands provide unique habitat for game fish, furbearers, waterfowl, and turtles.  Largemouth bass, saugeye, white bass, crappie, bluegill, walleye, yellow perch, and catfish are also plentiful at Indian Lake.  Hunting with a valid Ohio license is permitted in designated areas according to seasonal regulations.
