Description	In 1931 the state of Indiana built Bass Lake State Beach using long drag lines to pull sand from the lake’s bottom to build the beach. A Beach House was built and the beach was established. At that time both the beach and the campground nearby were operated and maintained by the state of Indiana. Today the campground and beach are operated by a private business owner.
