Cameron Park Lake — Attraction in California

Beautiful place for gatherings, and celebrations, especially in summer with some different kinds of activities like fishing, barbecuing, playing sports, walking, hiking and much more. You can enjoy this natural environment, and beauty by arranging a short trip here in Cameron Park , CA. It is really calming, and very relaxing quiet place to spend time with your loved ones, but keep in mind no pets allowed. The weather, the birds, the turtles everything is amazing, and adds to the atmosphere of the park which makes you feel fresh, and fantastic. Swans 🦢 are one of the beauty of this place, and the beautiful love dance of the Swans couples make your day, so don’t wait, and make it happen by visiting. It has a huge parking lot , and hundreds of parking spots including handicapped spots plus access, but it is not free you need to pay the parking lot fee which is increased from 1 bucks to almost 6 bucks , but to be honest its really worth it. But please clean after yourselves, and don’t make this beautiful place to be dirty , and nasty already trash was everywhere, and you can see visitors don’t clean after themselves which is gross. This is a home for those beautiful animals,so don’t make their homes filthy because I’m sure you guys don’t like your homes to be dirty by others, so please treat everyone the way you want to be treated. Please don’t feed any breads to the birds because that can kill them. Please do your research before feeding the swans, geese or the ducks. There are public restrooms which were not cleaned at all , and no paper towel or soap for washing after using the restrooms. Hopefully the authorities will take appropriate precautions to prevent any further damage to the park, and take hygiene seriously, especially when it comes to restrooms or the dining area. Please keep this beautiful place clean , and throw all your trash in trash cans which can be found at any corner of the park. I had a beautiful experience at this beautiful place, and made too many memories, so hopefully you are one of those who like to make memories without harming the environment, and the animals. Visit the place , and enjoy. Good luck...

This is a beautiful place to take kids and see nature. They have a playground and tennis nets too. Despite what the website says, they are NOT dog friendly. We learned this the hard way when we took our dog after checking the website to make sure it was ok. There was a single sign in one area that said dogs are not allowed, but given the conflicting information on their website, we assumed that it was only for that specific area and went to a different area. A local Karen group approached us and informed us that the lake is not dog friendly, but because my dog was leashed and seemed well-behaved, they would give us a pass. Not two seconds later, we were approached by a different person who also told us we could not be there. We ended up leaving rather than being harassed every five min by people who are in no way in charge or affiliated with park services. I double-checked the site, and it still says that dogs are allowed, so I am unsure of which is the correct info and have left a message for parks and rec to update their website with accurate info so that other families don't run into this issue in the future. We are not from here and drove 45 min to go here. If we'd known the dog was going to be an issue, we would have made other...

This is a great family park with LOTS to Do! We took our two toddler sons (2 & 3) here for the first time and they had a blast. We had a nice picnic lunch while we watched the birds in the lake. Unfortunately, you CANNOT feed the birds. There is also a lot of bird poo on the trails so it's difficult to maneuver on the walking trail with wandering little children. CPL has a great playground for little kids. It even features a rock climbing wall which was a big hit. There are also some very nice tennis courts at the park. Oh and don't forget fishing...you can actual fish at the park!

There were so many beautiful different types of birds at this lake. I really enjoyed seeing them, especially the large white and black swans that swam around the lake together.

FYI: There were signs that stated you had to pay $3.00 per person for residents and $5.00 per person for non residents. We did not pay because no one was working the booth and we didn't see another place to pay at.

Highly recommend checking this park out...it is unique and fun for the...
