     Pirates Cove is near Big Lagoon and is a pleasant site to have a look at, and Frank Valley is another glorious spot to take a look at close by. Battery Mendell Campground is a great campground nearby, and while here here do explore close by Rodeo Beach. Not enough hours in a day to enjoy this site. Why not take a refreshing hike along the Ben Johnson Trail, and there's some attention-grabbing stuff to spot at Tennessee Valley Dam near Big Lagoon. From a rain  
   point of view Big Lagoon is a quite common location; of all the months in a year January is the one with the most rain, and the driest month of the year is July.
Now, you may believe that's a load but there's even more enjoyable stuff to do here at Big Lagoon. If you get bored of Big Lagoon, you could also stop by close by Mill Valley Reservoir, and a brilliant nearby hotel is Mill Valley Inn. This lake is so wonderful. If you came for an overnight stay Haypress
 
               Campground is a great location to camp; a day at Muir Beach is time well spent. Haypress Pond is a nearby lake that you could check out, and Kent Creek is near Big Lagoon and is always a diversion to stop by.
The Bootjack Trail offers hiking at its best, and Kent Falls is always fun to check out. Do pay a visit to Muir Woods National Monument while you're here at Big Lagoon. Take a hike on the West Point Trail, and there are plenty of people from San Francisco-Oakland-Fremont here.
For the period of the long summer days highs here at Big Lagoon get into the 80's. Once the sun is down it dips down to the 50's. Daytime highs through the wintertime are in the 50's while Big Lagoon night low temperatures during the wintertime are in the 40's. This lake is so wonderful. Take some time to have a look at Bohemian Grove if you're here, and after a long day outdoors Holiday Inn Express MILL VALLEY-SAUSALITO is a wonderful place to spend a night or two.

Camping Trips
I have had the displeasure of staying at a campsite called Coloma Resort on the South Fork of the American River. If you're not a church group or over 65 this place is not for you. We were harassed by the management constantly and were told to go to bed at 10:00pm on a Saturday night. Nothing in their rules said laughing and the Beatles were not allowed. This is the type of place that will tell you what you want to hear just to get your money. The campsite was extremely crowded even the 3rd week of August. My advice is to go else where, anywhere else but here!...

Laguna Puerca
Also know as Pine Lake it is little more than a mud hole but the picnic area around it can be pleasant....
