Lake Yosemite County Park — Attraction in Merced

It's a really beautiful Lake but believe it or not the numbers of people are dropping over the years because the beaches are just absolutely disgusting. The grass isn't grass it's stickers . You have to wear shoes to walk on this glass it's so horrible . And if you don't step in a sticker you might step in goose poop. This poop and feathers are floating in the water no matter where you swim. They need some kind of filtration system just in the local area of swimming and maybe a machine that cleans the beach sand. So it's a beautiful view but it feels a little unsanitary . Needs to be cleaned up and some grass needs to be planted and water the grass with some of that water it isn't like there is a shortage of water to water the grass. And why not put a fence over the pier where kids jump off and die . You'd think that enough people have died that money could be spent to fence it under the water and put a dome over the top it shouldn't cost billions of dollars. That Lake probably makes enough in one month to do that. So somebody needs to stop being greedy and fix things and clean up. If you need more insight on how to make this Lake better just hit me up...

Beautiful experience at this lake no matter what part of the lake I go to! The bathrooms were clean and stocked and hand soap provided. The bathrooms were cement floors and beige brick walls and wooden beams with wire to keep it ventilated. There is a place were you cab rent paddle boards and you can fish, you can take your boat. There is a playground. Plenty of tables to eat. There is several beach areas to wade in and have the kids build sandcastles or just sun bathe. There's a beautiful dock for a better view of the water. There is a fee from 8- 5 but it's not much like $6 and if you go after 5... although I went at 4 and no one was there then it's free. You can also buy for the season. There's some wild life and a portion in the very back is for reservations for big parties.. it can cost a couple $100. On the weekends and holidays it is packed so I would suggest to come early to get a shady spot or bring a canopy and chairs for shade and seating. You'd want to brink your own beverages. But clean up after yourself because we don't want this beautiful lake trashed. When I just want to feel serene I come here. You should...

This is a great place for family fun. You could bring your own boats here. They also rent water power big toys; such as boats, jets and other water sports. Theres several areas of this park where you can enjoy the cool water of the lake. In the front of the first half of the lake the a huge jungle park for the kiddos to play in. There's also basketball courts for the older kids at heart . There's a bridge from one side that leads to the other side where you can walk on and enjoy the summer breeze. There's bbq pits and park benches across the entire lake. Bring some food and have a cook out. The restrooms are kept pretty clean.. i was impressed with the cleanliness. On the second half of the lake you can rent one of two halls where you can throw a nice celebration. This side also has a jungle gym and swings. The restrooms on this side are also kept clean. Nice inexpensive place to have...
