This nature preserve was a welcoming alternative when I visited these parts of Lodi. There's a different and very calming energy once entering the canopy of hovering cottonwood and oak trees. Stand still to absorb it. Inside this riparian forest I found all sorts of visual designs and patterns, especially with shades, shadows, and light playing in their space. The only distractions I had were the curious squirrels showing off their acorns. I wanted ro touch a tree, but I didn't because the hammock-shaped spiderwebs creeper me out a bit. This area was their home. At first, I intended to chill at the section called Lodi Lake Beach. It was closed off with orange nets. I'm guessing it was for the protection of baby turtles. Hello world, little ones 🐢 🐢 🐢 😍 This recreational area has various activities for stand-up paddle boarding (SUP), boating, kayaking, fishing, day camping, sunbathing, picnicking, BBQ, biking, walking, wildlife photography, and people-watching, maybe even more. Other sights to see are their garden beds, lots of cool birds, and friendly squirrels. Here's a great escape from a routine work week!

Went today to watch my granddog compete in dock diving. This was my first time here. The grounds were so nice and it looks like they have many fun things for dogs and their owners to sign up for. Watching the dock diving was fun. Dogs competing were from 5lbs to 140lbs. It was cool to see many different breeds of dogs. They also have dog kennels. I was just super impressed with the grounds and I highly recommend checking them out.

Absolutely stunning! My kids and I had so much fun walking around and exploring. Parking on site for a small fee, or free parking in allowed areas on the street. They have clean bathrooms, kayak and paddleboat rentals, and picnic tables. There is a playground for children and a nature walking path. They include everything for all to enjoy! Great place to spend the day with family and friends.
