You can't complete without riding on the swan boat there. Since there are not very much to do around the lake, just fishing, BBQ, seeing going around the lake riding on a carriage or shopping around souvenir shops.

So we rode on one of them. It costs to rent one 1000yen per 30mins.
The seating capacity of it is 2 adults with 2 kids. That was good for us.
30mins is not long enough to conquer the lake. Besides, the boat doesn't run fast. When I looked back after paddled a certain extent, I imagined we were already away from the shore though, the shore was just behind us.
