Loch Lomond Lake is nestled in the Santa Cruz Mountains
in the heart of Lompico and comprises an 87-acre lake
stocked with Trout, Bluegills and Largemouth Bass. Twelve
miles of trails wind their way across the woods
and along two miles of lakeshore. One spectacular five
mile loop goes along the lake to Deer Flat and to Highland
Trail and up to the ridge where the
view is worth every step. Fishing is always an option;
just bring your pole. This 180 acres of recreation area
offers picnic tables, a children's playground, nature
center, interpretive walks with rangers and a lake side
store where you can rent an electric or row boat, as
well as pick up bait, tackle, fishing licenses, hot
and cold drinks, and snacks.
