A tremendous place for whitewater paddling right next door to Golden Lake is Stanislaus River - Middle Fork; Golden Lake is right by the Pacific Crest Trail - section 13. This lake is so wonderful. If you  
   don’t have a problem getting drenched, you can always go whitewater paddling on Carson River - East Fork, and you'll never forgive yourself if you don’t go skiing at Dodge Ridge while you're here.
This lake is so wonderful. If you need a site to stay Super 8 Gardnerville is a brilliant choice, and why not take a refreshing hike along the Silver King Trail. One of the dominant marks of the surroundings of Golden Lake is Disaster Peak. Take a hike on the
 
               Corral Valley Trail, and a great nearby hotel is Best Western Topaz Lake Inn.
