The boulder on the lake shore was probably scraped out of the ground and moved to that location during the last Ice Age, by a moving glacier. It is very likely an igneous rock of some kind. But boulders can be made from many kinds of rocks. As for where it formed, ultimately, certain types of elements, silicon, iron, aluminum, oxygen, and various others, can combine in certain ways to form rock; these atoms were originally present in a cloud of interstellar gas that condensed to form the solar system as we know it today. It is possible to trace the origin of the rocks back further, to the big bang if you wish, but that makes it more complicated.
