Great place. Keep your eyes open though. Rattlesnakes on the trails, Bobcats are in the brush and coyotes sneak up behind you. Don’t leave anything visible in your car, a lot of windows get smashed here. Please… if people are fishing, don’t stand next to them and throw rocks in the water. Skip rocks all day long, just please distance yourself and understand that doing so is ruining our visit.

A fantastic trail around the lake with a variety of views and elevations. A great spot to bring the kids or leaahed dogs for a pleasant walk and some nature. The trail is around a mile long loop with a decent sized parking lot a the trailhead. This recently opened up to the public and connects with the Discovery Lake trail system.

It looks nice but its closed! There is a parking lot next to it and trails that used to lead into it, but it's fully fenced with barbed wire now and said there is cctv watching you. So no hike around the lake here!

About South Lake

Nestled amidst nature, South Lake offers a picturesque spot for an enjoyable day out with family and friends. While it boasts a tranquil atmosphere perfect for hiking and connecting with nature, visitors are advised to stay alert for local wildlife such as rattlesnakes, bobcats, and coyotes. The lake features a mile-long loop trail surrounded by varied natural vistas, making it not only a sanctuary for walkers and runners but also a beautiful setting for leisurely strolls with leashed dogs. Those interested in hiking will find the recently opened trails connecting to the Discovery Lake trail system a welcome exploration. Anglers will appreciate the opportunity to fish, although others should be mindful to skip stones at a respectful distance to avoid disrupting their catch. Despite some security concerns regarding vehicle safety, with recent reports of break-ins, it remains a popular spot featuring a well-sized parking lot at the trailhead. Ultimately, whether you’re there to fish, hike, or enjoy a peaceful walk with family, South Lake is an inviting local gem that promises a serene day in the great outdoors.
