Matt PeekBeautiful little hike around a mountain lake. Fishing dock and picnic table by the road. Then there's a separate picnic area next to the creek by the parking area. One of our favorite family spots in the area.

Audrey CarrollBeautiful lake that is stocked with trout. Know before you go to bring the appropriate bait and tackle. We didn't but still enjoyed just tossing a line or 2. We only got bites on a fly using a Tenkara pole. There's a fishing dock with 1 picnic table, fishing pier, and trail around the lake. The water was pretty clear with abundance of fish. Great area for kids to fish as well.

The TravelerThis was a nice find. The gravel road down to the lake seemed a little sketchy at first, might have been the road grader sitting at the entrance. The lake is the perfect size for a quick walk around. I found Mountain Lion tracks in the mud. I spent a little over an hour here. No one else around. It was great!!!
