Best lake in mendocino county. Named after the county because of this. Sailing on this lake is fun when the wind is blowing. When it isnt a kayak or paddleboard are also fun. Camping, picnic areas, day use areas and family areas with playgrounds. This lake is underappreciated for its time. See it while you can. Run by corp of engineers who can at any time close areas off for any reason. Being under budget areas remain closed because of staffing. This affects all services but its still, the best lake in mendocino county. 5 stars.

Most campsites are closed usually but hiking trails are open. Theres many miles of trail all around the lake. Great views in some areas.

I love coming here for camping, water fun, BarBQue, pinic, spending the day, and hiking. Unfortunately there is no camping in part of it til 2020 I read.
