Whalon Lake

Quarry lake with two small islands, prairie and wetlands — good for reflective water shots, island silhouettes, paddling action and seasonal wildlife (monarchs, ducks). Paved 1.6–1.8 mi loop, kayak rentals and dock, large dog park. Best at sunrise/sunset for warm light and glassy water; weekdays/early mornings have fewer people. Limited shade; accessible parking and restrooms near the entrance.
