Wonder lake is a man maid lake. A dam was constructed in 1929 establishing 12 miles of shoreline. The lake was developed into 14 subdivisions with 27 parks and beaches. Each Subdivision has it's own association with dues ranging from $25 and $250 per year. Part of the dues go to the Master Property Association, which manages the lake and dam. There are many great clubs in Wonder Lake, incluing the Sportsmans Club which provides for duck hunting in the fall. Come and visit Beautiful Wonder Lake!
