A 25 acre lake with about 50 to 60 houses along its shores. Fish and Wildlife access/boat launch for non-gas-powered engines. Active local community dedicated to preserving the wetlands on the west end where otter, beaver, great blue heron, eagles, osprey and the ever-present Canada geese and mallards reside. Both community and F&W stock rainbow trout. Fingerling coho have also been spotted and a recovery of these salmon is of high interest. Lake plays major role in storm water retention for large area downstream along Swamp Creek. Community holds annual fourth of July boat parade and good fireworks displays.
