This is somewhat coplicated besides cold weather. Water reaches its maximum density at thirty-nine degrees (F). Then the water sinks and "turns over" and the process is repeated until the temperature is a homogenius 39, then the top layer cools and eventuall freezes. Deep lake take much longer to freeze, if at all (Lake Tahoe) for example. That's why shallow lakes freeze quicker and the ice is thicker. Salinity also plays a part...salt Walter freezing point averages 28 degrees (F)
Lakes are full of water - which can evaporate. Just like you can cool your body down by sweating and then having the heat from your body evaporate the sweat, lakes can cool down a bit below the surrounding temperature by evaporation of the water they contain. They also tend to be cooler than their surroundings because they are fed by rivers and streams that are bringing cooler water in from higher elevations that are cooler.
A third reason is that water has considerable thermal mass. It takes a lot more energy to warm up water (per unit mass) than most other things around it so while the air around it might warm quickly, the lakeis barely changing temperature.
there no sun to warm it
The bottom of Lake Michigan is very cold and pitch black.
You can, Lake Michigan is fairly clean and the water temperature is cold, but tolerable from June-September.
Yes, it is referencing a specific lake, so Lake Michigan is correct.
Lake michigan is in michigan so apparently it's part of michigan!
Lake Huron is about 65 degrees. I would recommend you go to lake Michigan.

Lake Michigan separates lower Michigan from Wisconsin.

You can find lake Michigan going through Chicago.
