     Missouri has many beautiful lakes and Shady Lake is one of them. An attention-grabbing thing to stop at in close proximity to Shady Lake is Shady Lake Dam, and Travelodge Columbia is a wonderful spot to get some rest. Shady Lake gets a normal amount of precipitation; May is when you get the most rain here while January is ordinarily the driest month. This lake is so wonderful. Float down the rapids of Hinkson Creek in a kayak, and why not take a refreshing  
   hike along the Cedar Creek Hiking Trail.
This place, Shady Lake, it truly has so much outdoors amusing stuff. If you want to play some golf, you're in luck because University of Missouri-Columbia Gustin Golf Course is in the vicinity, and if you came to camp Cottonwoods RV Park is a glorious site to do that. All through the summertime at Shady Lake highs are generally in the 80's. Throughout the dark hours of summer temperatures dip down into the 60's. The cold
 
               days of the winter come with highs in the 30's, and overnight lows during the winter for Shady Lake tend to be in the 10's. Lakes? Sure, Stephens Lake is around here, and camping at Pine Grove Village MHP is always a fine experience.
Since you might be in a lake visiting mood you can always visit nearby Moores Lake, and after a long day outdoors Quality Inn Columbia is a brilliant location to spend a night or two. Take a side visit to Goose Creek, and you'll possibly meet some people from Columbia here. This lake is so wonderful.

Hinkson Creek
There is a gage at Providence Rd, you can check water levels at this link: http://waterdata.usgs.gov/nwis/uv/?site_no=06910230&agency_cd=USGS My unladen solo canoe can scoot by at 30cfs, any less than that and I'm dragging. ...As of 6/18/2008, there is nowhere near enough water in the stream at the put-in (or much of the rest of the stream) for any kind of paddle-craft....This is a fun, after work run when the water is moving. There are no defined rapids, although there are several modest playspots: 1)S-Turn, near the back of the Walmart site, and 2) The Ultimate Surfing Wave which is downstream from the Old 63 bridge. Hazards include two low water crossings in the Stephens Golf Course. Portage is highly recommended at high water as the crossings act as low head dams. Water quality in the Spring can be an issue and several boaters in years past have contracted leptosporosis (aka lepto) from involuntarily ingesting the water. Mostly the Hink' is a fun float on moving water with enough wave action and eddys to keep things interesting. Suitable for canoes and kayaks. ...

Tri-City Lake
13 miles away
I'd like to see a walking trail around the lake. I know there is a woodland trail, but I'd like to see an asphalt trail around the lake. Great for hikers, bikers, roller blades, skateboarders, etc. Try Watkins Mill State Park for an example...
