Beautiful lake with really nice trails. Recently updated with wide paved trails and benches all the way around the lake. Downside is that during renovation a sewer line was damaged and polluted the lake. There are no indications of the pollution except for the signs warning swimmers to stay out. Lots of fish, turtles, ducks, geese, and other wildlife.

Area around the lake is paved so it's perfect for strollers and bikes. Many trails lead off the pavement for hiking and exploring. No swimming and although you can fish I wouldn't eat the fish because of pollution. Despite the pollution though it's a very pretty lake to walk or jog around with lots of ducks and geese.

Great paved walking trail around the lake. I wouldn't swim in it. Great veiwing areas from lake level and up in the hills. There are benches locations in various areas. The parking lot and lake is completely wheelchair accessible. There is a boat launch/deck. Near the entrance from the parking lot is a covered area.

This park needs more security, its too pretty to be considered dangerous. Come on WA reclaim your land from crime! I've heard multiple accounts of people almost being kidnapped or assaulted here, and women are stalked and followed all the way to their cars. There are so many people who walk it as a daily route just to enjoy, stationed cops to keep watch or at least security cameras would be so reasonable! We don't need more...

The lake has a nice paved path around it and parking is close. Occassionally there will be a bicyclist zipping around this track, but for the most part just friendly people getting some exercise. There is an off-leash dog park nearby that has 3 sections for small dogs, medium to large, and a large area with bushes and berry patches for more adventurous dogs. The lake also gets a large number of wintering...
