LINCOLN LAKE

Lincoln Lake, 90 acres of water on a 400 acre space, is a natural wildlife preserve with many species of birds and wildlife. The Lincoln Lake experience is for recreational family fishing, flat water kayaking, canoeing, rock climbing, and wildlife enjoyment. Boats on the lake must be electric or paddle power only.

 

There is a scenic walk at the top of the ridge that offers a view for miles, and seven miles of single track mountain biking and hiking trails. There are plenty of fish in the lake and a large meadowland below the dam that can be used for picnics, kite flying, RC aircraft or model rocketry.
