Laguna Lake Park — Attraction in Fullerton

Nestled between the Robert E Ward nature preserve and the Fullerton Golf Course is Laguna Lake Park, located at 3120 Lakeview Drive in the City of Fullerton. Featuring Laguna Lake which is man-made and is clean with benches and tables in shaded areas and good spots to cast a line for fish. Since people are fishing and it is not a naturally fed lake, the fish either fell from the sky or the lake is periodically stocked. The overall park is narrow and long with the hiking and biking trails to the South from the parking area, with upper and lower paths and a couple of cover picnic table areas. The Bud Turner Trail extends the length of the park on the East side from Laguna Road and crosses Clarion Dr. and continues up along the lake to W. Hermosa Dr. The path then continues around the lake. On the Southern end down along the biking trails are two large equestrian arenas. To enter and park, from driving North on Lakeview Dr. turn right onto Clarion and immediately to the left are exactly 18 parking spots two of which are ADA designated and the restrooms, with a small grass area. Immediately to the right are exactly 23 more parking spots. The Parking Lot Hours are from 7 AM until Sunset. No overnight parking. A nice quiet place to come and walk or picnic, dog friendly with responsible dog ownership, and a generally relaxing environment in the midst of the city. Definitely a...

Finding lively Genius Loci at Laguna Lake Park and a variety of poppies, salvia and lavender. This park has improved. New tables on cement bases, dedicated trees, steps and safety railings.

Hiked the east side of the park (by Equestrian Center) and happened upon historic trees, mountain bikers and low-water landscaped areas. Parking is on both east and west sides of the lake. Spectacular Jacaranda trees, 100+year old Eucalyptus and waterfowl make for a memorable ambulatory footslog on a shock absorbing dirt trail.

Fishing is allowed here with a permit. Restrooms are updated. This lake is surrounded on all sides by sprawling half-acre estates. Recent lake renovation added large boulders, wood bridges, flowing water and photo worthy hillside landscaping with bees and turtles.

Locals, city neighbors and I cherish Laguna Lake. Well kept lakes and it can be busy. Nice dirt path around a shaded lake. Sunset at the lake is romantic and largely attributed to melodic flowing water sounds while you stroll and hear songbirds above singing, cacophony of joggers shuffling and the stillness overcoming all on its shores. Thriving still. Many improvements to this area and a new bench on the...

I’ve enjoyed this place for its scenic beauty and as an usual uncrowded stopover for quick walks and jogs! It can be included in area hikes or taken in separately as a short fitness trek or lunch break! The park is in a natural looking area with a small lake, where local waterfowl, turtles and fish can be seen from the water’s edge. In addition, local birds, squirrels and lizards may be seen above the ground. From the designated parking lot at the south end, or from the Lakeside Drive end to the north, it’s possible to circle around the lake clockwise or counter clockwise. Intermittent tree shade may be mixed with sunshine along the sand and dirt trails. These trails may be shared with horse and dog walking pedestrians. Benches and picnic tables are randomly placed around the park, tho may be chosen for the best views and preferences. The park appears clean and well maintained and includes trash containers for users to help keep it that way! There’s restroom’s located near the...
