Lower Lake Recreation Area
Lower Lake is an area developed for visitors of the regulating dam. Fishing in the continuous outflow of the dam is a popular pastime. Other visitors fish the 400-acre pool above the dam or float and fish the river below the dam. Individual covered picnic tables plus one group shelter with a large cooking grill are available for use. The openness of the area lends itself to volleyball, softball, 18-hole disc golf course, and a fitness course. Hiking, fishing, canoeing, kayaking, disc golf, and picnicing are popular activities in the area. Lower Lake Recreation Area has a group use shelter available for renting.
