Protecting the Beauty, Ecology, and Enjoyment of Hutchins Lake

HLIA Mission

The Hutchins Lake Improvement Association (HLIA) is dedicated to preserving the environmental quality and thoughtful stewardship of Hutchins Lake and its surrounding watershed. Through education, open communication, and a shared commitment, we strive to safeguard the health of the lake community and ensure recreational opportunities remain available for generations to come.

Nestled in southwest Michigan near the charming city of Fennville and the Allegan State Game Area, Hutchins Lake is a treasure worth protecting.

HLIA is a proud member of the Michigan Waterfront Alliance (MWA). MWA is a nonprofit organization focused on protecting, serving, and promoting the wise use of Michigan’s inland waters. MWA tackles vital issues like environmental law, water rights, riparian doctrine, and marine safety.

By becoming a member of HLIA, you’re joining a community dedicated to protecting the beauty, ecology, and enjoyment of Hutchins Lake for years to come. Together, we can make a lasting impact!
