Lakes

Lake #1 has traditionally been known as the skiing lake. Its form is long and narrow with a width of 400 to 600 feet and a length of approximately 4400 feet, giving an area of roughly 50 acres. Because of its length and abuting residences, it is the most suitable lake for motorized boats. The availability of a boating lake to Lakewood residents is an important and valuable asset.

Fishing available from dawn to dusk.

Read the Boating and Fishing Regulations tabs for more information.

Lake #2 has traditionally been known as the fishing lake. It is the largest of the six lakes with an area of approximately 60 acres. It has a length of 3600 feet between the Old Mill Park and the dam at the south end of the lake. Its maximum width is 1400 feet. The form of the lake is a series of narrow fingers lying between fairly steep ridges. A Fishing Dock is located on the East Side of the lake. (Fishing boats operate at trolling speed only.)

Lake #3 has traditionally been known as the swimming lake, although no swimming is allowed at the present time. This 12 acre lake is 1600 feet by 550 feet. Its adjacent open space is the location of the LPOA Office, tennis courts, ball field, basketball court, park pavillion, picnic tables, kiddie playground equipment and several Rodriguez sculptures.
