I don't know what happened to my original review of Lodi lake because it had some great wild life shots and some family ones as well bummer oh well. If you are in Lodi and miss coming here you have missed out on this golden gem. It is located right smack in the middle of town and is such a great spot right off Turner Rd and runs along side the Mokelumne River. There is so much to do here from walking, running fishing, swimming, kayaking you name it they have it. In the summer time they even rent kayaks and have a small kids pool open as well. Our favorite is the walking nature trail. I bet time you see something new from deer, turtles, tons of squirrels and deer roaming around the place. It is so peaceful we love to do this especially in the evenings as it's a little cooler out and the animals seem to be a little more active. They also throughout the same host really cool activities and festivals as well. Plus they keep the park very clean and if you visit be respectful and do the same. Like I mentioned if you are in Lodi don't miss this one! read more
