Budd Lake is a convert|175|acre|km2|1|sing=on lake in Clare County, in the central region of Michigan's lower peninsula. Wilson State Park borders the lake to the northwest.

A popular lake for anglers seeking muskies, it offers two boat ramps. [Barta, Jim. [http://www.michigansportsmanmag.com/fishing/muskies-pike-fishing/mi_aa072604a/ Michigan's Best Bets for Muskies] . "Michigan Sportsman". Retrieved July 15, 2007.]

The Michigan DNR announced on May 17, 2007 that Budd became the first inland lake in the state of Michigan confirmed to be infected by a new strain of viral hemorrhagic septicemia (VHS). [ [http://www.michigan.gov/dnr/0,1607,7-153-10371_10402-168753--,00.html Fish Disease Discovered in Budd Lake, Clare County] . (Press Release). Michigan Department of Natural Resources. May 17, 2007. Retrieved July 15, 2007.] The DNR analyzed fish specimens after a very large die-off that began on April 30, 2007 of muskies, bluegills, and black crappie. VHS is an infectious fish disease responsible for mass die-offs of many species, but not linked to any human health concerns. [Crawford, Franklin. [http://www.news.cornell.edu/stories/May07/fish.virus.spreading.html Cornell researchers confirm that deadly fish virus has spread to 19 species, threatening sport-fishing industry] . "Chronicle Online". Cornell University. May 17, 2007. Retrieved July 14, 2007.] The disease can be spread between bodies of water through live or frozen bait fish, roe, contaminated fishing equipment, live water wells in boats, and ballast water, among other ways. Boats and fishing equipment should be disinfected before transfer from Budd Lake to other destinations.
