For an example of a great lake (not a "Great Lake"…) visit Waldo here in Oregon. 

"Lying high on the western slopes of the Oregon Cascades, Waldo Lake is one of the largest natural lakes in Oregon (9.8 square miles with a maximum depth of 427 feet). Waldo is one of the purest lakes in the world. It has no permanent inlet to bring nutrients into the lake for plant growth. The lack of plant life contributes to its purity. You can see to depths of 120 feet on a calm day."

It's also the headwaters of the Willamette river, and a very beautiful area to hike and camp.
