## Frequently Asked Questions — Goguac Lake

### How big is Goguac Lake and where exactly is it?

Goguac Lake is a 325-acre all-sports lake located directly inside the city of Battle Creek, Michigan (Calhoun County) — one of the rare Michigan lakes that sits fully within a city's boundaries. Maximum depth is about 66 feet, with roughly 7.5 miles of shoreline (per Meg's admin record). Three islands sit inside the lake itself: Picnic Island, Peach Island, and Ward Island.

### Where is the public boat launch on Goguac Lake?

The public boat launch is on the north end of the lake, off West Territorial Road, operated by the City of Battle Creek. Most of the shoreline is private residential — the launch plus Willard Beach are the two ways non-riparian visitors reach the water.

### What is Willard Beach?

Willard Beach is a Battle Creek city park on Goguac Lake — sandy shore, swim area, picnic facilities, and one of the longest-standing municipal beaches in Southwest Michigan. It's been a local favorite for generations. Free to Battle Creek residents; small non-resident day fees in season.

### What fish are in Goguac Lake?

The Michigan DNR regularly stocks the lake, and anglers pull Largemouth Bass, Walleye, Northern Pike, Yellow Perch, and Bluegill. The 66-foot depth structure gives you shallow weed edges for bass work and deeper drop-offs where the walleye tend to hold in summer.

### Where does the name "Goguac" come from?

From the Potawatomi word "Coguagiack," describing the rolling prairie that surrounded the water long before the city of Battle Creek grew up around it. The name predates the city itself — a connection to the land and to the people who lived here first.

### Why does Dockside delivery make sense on Goguac?

Most of the shoreline is private residential, which means most Goguac boaters keep their boats at private docks — not at a marina with a fuel pump. Trailering out for fuel is the alternative, which most residents skip. Dockside brings REC-90 straight to your dock so you don't give up a Saturday morning to a fuel run.

### How do I get on the Goguac Lake weekly fuel delivery route?

Text GOGUAC to (877) 257-FUEL. Reply Y to confirm SMS delivery alerts and we add you to Goguac Lake's weekly route. No credit card required to join — pay only when you actually order fuel. You can also sign up online at docksidefuelservices.com if you prefer.

### What kind of fuel do you deliver to Goguac Lake?

REC-90 ethanol-free marine gasoline — the recommended fuel for boats, jet skis, pontoons, side-by-sides, generators, and most outdoor power equipment. The lack of ethanol prevents phase separation in tanks that sit unused for stretches, which protects engines on lakeside properties that don't see daily use.

### How many gallons can be delivered to Goguac Lake in one day?

Up to 780 gallons per route (700-gallon truck plus 80-gallon Fuel Mule). Reservations are first-reserve, first-fill — once Goguac Lake's weekly route fills up, additional requests join a FIFO waitlist and auto-promote when a reservation cancels.

### Is there a delivery minimum on Goguac Lake?

No minimum gallons — the trip fee ($30 dockside or $15 curbside) is the same whether we fill 5 gallons or 100. Most customers order 20-50 gallons per trip. The flat trip fee covers the cost of bringing the truck to your lake; per-gallon pricing is the current REC-90 market rate plus $1.49/gal.
