Write a reviewA lovely spot with a decent access point at the pin location...not many other good entry / exit points so best for circular swims
It's a bit of a walk in from the nearest parking but is all decent made up paths.
Access point has a flat rocky shelf but the water deepens quickly once past this. Stay away from the outlet tower on the dam wall

Check the Conditions tab for surface state and wind conditions. Review the Water Quality tab if this is a designated bathing water. Always read recent community reports for local advice.
Check the Temperature tab for the current estimate and 7-day trend. Lakes hold heat longer than rivers but can develop a thermocline — the water below the surface can be dramatically colder.
A tow float for visibility (especially important where boats operate), warm layers for after, and consider a wetsuit in colder months. Check for designated swimming areas.
