Ranking the 25 states based on the size of their largest lakes. I previously looked at the bottom 25 states based on their largest lakes, so these are the states with the largest lakes. I am only looking at naturally formed lakes that are wholly contained within one state, so no dammed-up reservoirs or lakes shared between states or countries.
