I live right by the lake there’s a variety of activities. There’s hiking, mountain biking, boating, swimming, water sports, etc. On clear days you can see the outline of the mountains over the lake.

Speechless. Beautiful area to go hang out,swim, hike, and have a great BBQ day out with the family. Even some peace and alone time. Reasonable entrance price. And can even use boats and jet ski. I recommend it!
