around the lake offer a variety of day use recreation opportunities such as picnicking,
swimming, fishing, hunting and wildlife viewing. Richardson Park operated by Lane County
Parks at the north end of the lake has overnight camping sites. The area includes
extensive wetlands and provides unique habitat for a variety of wildlife and wintering
