The whole lake freezing is also getting rare. It's been three years since the last time it was completely covered and it requires a longer period of cold weather and barely any wind for it to happen. In earlier years, there used to be ice roads on the lake, so that you could drive over to the other side. Saves a lot of time since the way around is really long.
