This lake is so wonderful. Good hiking is available along the Panhandle Trail, and this is a popular spot for folks from Washington-Arlington-Alexandria. Whitewater paddling is not for everybody but if it's for you then we recommend Anacostia River - Northwest Branch, and | |

Migratory birds also have put this lake on their itinerary! There is fishing in the lake and also a healthy turtle population. Beavers also have taken up residence in one area and by some of the ''missing'' trees you can tell that they have been there. There is also a resident blue heron that can often be found on the shore of the lake or amongst the greenery on the little island in the middle. All in all, though I'm not a great writer...this is a wonderful and serene place that I always make time t... |
