Stumbled upon this place on a road trip across the US. What a beautiful lake to stop at! Mild dirt road with some potholes but easily manageable with any vehicle just have to be cautious. Got to the end of the road and had an amazing view of this little lake. Check it out if you are in the area!
Very pretty, pleasant surprise. No bathrooms here, have to go to the next stop where the boat launch is.
Very beautiful lake, nice clear water amazing surrounding close to many campgrounds and far enough from Phoenix so it didn't get crowded, good for fishing kayaking,, there is bunch of trails around, just a simple walk around lake will get you enough walking for one day and you will enjoy the scenery ,if you like fishing there is plenty of fish, not big enough, but good enough to keep you busy, visit and experience for your self,...and please, please pickup your trash, it's a shame what people do, I am sorry but, some humans are just waist of life...
Easy to get to. It's a dirt road and dirt parking lot but we were able to make it across it just fine in our van. The kids had a lot of fun swimming, It's a clean area So pack out whatever trash you bring in. Not too overcrowded, pretty calm Waters, a good fishing place as well I've heard. No bathrooms around so come prepared 😅
Quiet day use area. Lots of people fishing.
Sardine Point was absolutely beautiful. Even though we didn’t catch anything this time, the experience was still so worth it. The views were peaceful and the air felt so fresh. There was still a little bit of snow left, which made everything feel even more magical and calm. It’s the kind of spot that’s perfect for relaxing, taking in nature, and just enjoying the moment. Definitely planning to come back—next time with better luck on the fishing!
