Devils Lake is a known recreation lake, attracting both local and international tourists. It is home to the Grahams Island State Park and Sullys Hill National Game Preserve, while the Spirit Lake Reservation sits on the southern shores of the lake.
Most people come for its fantastic fishing, especially its perch. There are boat ramps to accommodate anglers, though other recreational activities are also enjoyed here, including camping, picnicking and boating. In the winter, the lake is open for ice fishing.
