Small lake in Arroyo Simi with oak‑dotted shorelines, reedbeds, waterfowl and rolling hills — great for tranquil reflections, intimate nature shots and bird photography. Best at sunrise or golden hour for warm light and mirror reflections; late winter–spring brings greener hills and wildflowers. Easily accessible by car with nearby parking on weekdays; flat, stroller-friendly paths and picnic areas. No entry fee; expect local walkers and anglers — visit early to avoid crowds.
