Blue Lake is a 64-acre natural lake fed by underground springs.

Blue Lake Regional Park provides opportunities for boating, fishing and swimming, and makes a beautiful backdrop for hundreds of family picnics, community events and special programs throughout the year.

Reservations are necessary for groups of 25 people or more. First-come, first-served tables for small groups are available along the lake front.

"Unfortunately we didn't bring a lunch and though the park was crowded with people and the weather hot and sunny, the food concession stand wasn't open! What a bummer! So we were not able to stay, but had to bicycle on to where we could find food."
"This park is just right for group or family picnic activities...It has a designated swimming area (DO NOT DRINK THE LAKE WATER) and boat pedal paddling rides in the lake...There are volleyball/basketball courts, a space big enough for a soccer or a baseball field for sports minded and active people...."...Some picnic area by the lake can be occupied by the first come first serve basis- just wake up early and be at the gate before the park opens...Of course you can definitely reserve your spot by calling Park & Recreation office few months before your actual date of use...Covered picnic areas are also available for rent...Please bring a spare jacket with you if you planned to be there until sundown...Lastly, fireworks are lighted during the Fourth of July celebration until further notice...
