    Egyptian goose
    Jeremy S.

    During an afternoon, I visited Laguna Lake again to take pictures of the aquatic birds. The weather was pleasant and sunny. I saw mallards, geese, and a great egret. There are trails to access different parts of the lake. Many people circle around the lake or fish recreationally. Signs around the lake continue to prohibit feeding the wildlife. I'm happy with the pictures I took, but I can still improve. The experience was decompressing with sounds of flowing creek water and birds chirping all around the air.

    One of my favorite places to jog. Weekend gets busy, best to there early in the am. Different Trails to try.

    Our second time here. Plenty of ducks and geese to look at. Perfect for a good short walk. There are other trails to do a bit longer walk and bike riding. Clean park. We saw bathrooms but didn't use them so I can't say if they were clean or not. You can bring your dog too. We liked this park very much!

    Peaceful park- well maintained and great for everyone...including dogs! Parking is easy and accessible. Entrance to the park is great for picnics and they offer bbqs!!

    It wasn't as pretty as I thought it'd be. A lot more dirt and bikes than expected. I was constantly on the look out to avoid being run over. There were also many people fishing. We walked by a dead turtle with blood over its mouth. It probably got hooked up by the people fishing nearby and was tossed to the side....Seeing that just saddened me and ruined my day. The only nice things about this place are that parking was smooth and it's pretty clean. There's barely even duck poop around.

    Located in Fullerton. I didn't even realize that there was a hidden gem within this city. We were really surprised how pristine the park is. It's dog friendly and they allow fishing you have to follow the rules in fishing posted within the park area. There are a lot of ducks and turtles around the pond. We walked the whole route around casually and have enjoyed every minute of it. Next time you are in the City of Fullerton why not swing by.

    This is an amazing park & we had no issues bringing our puppy for a walk. Everything is super clean & we even saw people riding horses.

    Plenty of benches and tables around the loop

    1st time visiting this park after continuously researching new parks to explore. Super love this park! Located in a residential area of fullerton with older large homes and equestrians setting. Free parking lots (slightly on smaller end) but there is always street parking. Parking lots located at either top or bottom of the loop pending which way coming from. No entrance fees! Kid friendly Stroller friendly Walkers Joggers Dog friendly Quite accessible for many folks looking to move around Dog bags are not provided so please prepare accordingly Well kept, various signs to learn about the habitat There is not a barrier from the lake so watch little ones who may want to explore a little to close Walking with my dog with in-between sniffs potty moments and etc, we finish under 30 mins. It was quite serene clean and for the amount of potential bird poo hardly was any seen. Plenty of trash cans, tables, and benches spread throughout. I would like to say there are 2 diff. Bathroom facilities available. Got here around 645am. Felt safe was there were a few cars and already a handful walking the paths. I would suggest bringing small cloth or something to wipe paws as my Kiddo tracked back a bit and he appreciate the wipe I think haha Definitely a place to return and explore the other pathways! Great find hidden gem indeed!

    A nice place to walk. I've never seen it too busy, not too empty. Some folks like to fish. There's always some shade as well. The path around the lake is about .75 mile.

    Hidden gem. This isn't the type of park with a playground, but more of a kid-friendly trail along the lake. Be aware, you share the trail with fellow walkers and bicycle riders. We spotted a few people fishing, skipping rocks, and even set up a little spot to paint. There's lots of shaded areas and benches for a breather. The trail/walkway is all dirt so keep that in mind. There's also a tiny spot that resembles a creek where kids can dip their feet in and enjoy the water flowing by. If you have kids, they'll thoroughly enjoy this. The birds and fish are used to people feeding them. As soon as I walked up to the water, they scurried over to me thinking it was feeding time.

    Ask the Community - Laguna Lake Park

    How long is one lap around the lake?

    I took a brisk walk and timed myself for one lap. Everyone has different walking speeds, and I even stopped to take photos. My time was 14 minutes and 30 seconds. The loop is about 3/4 of a mile.

    Does it get busy with lots of fishing? Like to crowded?

    it's a pretty big lake and i have never seen it get crowded

    Is there a dog park here?

    It's dog-friendly, but no designated area for dogs to run around off-leash.

    Any playground available?

    No. Hermosa Park (nearby) has one though.

    Can dogs swim here?

    Unfortunately no.

    Where can I obtain a fishing license?

    Walmart

    What time does the lake open to fish?

    Are there trails that are paved in this park so I can come with my baby in her stroller?

    The track is dirt. Bit bumpy for a stroller. Hermosa Park (on the other side of Harbor) is a park suitable for strolling plus it's next to Hermosa Elementary

    Can dogs go into the water?

    Technically, no swimming. Common sense also mandates you wouldn't want any organic life swimming in the water upon closer observation.

    Is there shelters available for birthday parties ? new to town so I'm not familiar with any parks .suggestions will be greatly appreciated, thanks !

    No shelters. This marsh isn't ideal for picnics, etc. Consider Craig Regional Park in Brea, Ralph B Park in Fullerton, Vista del Valle Park in La Habra, City Hall Park in… 

    Where exactly are the train tracks?

    The tracks dip below the cliff line. you can't access it from the lake. You can walk down from Hermosa Dr or Las Palmas.… 

    None of the signs around the lake state whether or not a fishing license is required? Please explain why or why not you believe a license is required and where to get one if you've ever fished here?

    Generally, fishing license is required whenever the California Dept of Fish & Game stocks the lake/resevoirs. You can acquire or get info on how to get a CA fishing permit at www.wildlife.ca.gov/Licensing/Fishing. Best is annual/no restrictions

    Do you need a fishing license for this site?

    Yes , you are required to have a fishing license !

    What time does it close?

    They lock the gates at sunset.

    Do you have to pay to get in?

    No. Free street parking and small parking lots around.

    What are the rules for fishing at this lake? Is it catch and release for certain fish or all fish? If not, how many fish can be taken home? Thank you.

    Its catch and release mainly but if you do choose to keep any the limit is 2. This applies to any of the fish.

The playgrounds are so much fun for our kids and it is also a great space for picnics too. There is a lot of parking here and it's never too busy.

The display also showed $5 for weekends and $3 midweek. We wanted to do the Redwood trail and were directed to parking lot A. The park is big and beautifully landscaped with a pond and various picnic areas that can be rented in advance. There is enough space to set up all kinds of games. We brought a picnic lunch and sat on a bench that was perfectly situated alone amongst the desert plants. After lunch, we followed the signs for the Redwood Grove Trail which was labeled as easy and is a 1.5 miles dirt trail to the Redwood trees. When you arrive you'll see a small Redwood forest with the history of the trees displayed before you enter. A really beautiful and peaceful spot to relax for a bit. On our way back we decided to take the Creek Trail to see where it would lead us. I was hoping to see water at the end of this trail. But, we only saw a bunch of rocks at one point that may be filled with water if it rains. The end of this trail did lead us to a beautiful butterfly garden and the opposite end of the park. We made the walk back and stopped at the pond. There appeared to be other trails surrounding the park and a trail that leads to the Carbon Canyon Dam.
