Waterboo Lake – A Hidden Gem for Solitude & Adventure

Discover unmatched seclusion at Waterboo Lake, a serene 10-acre oasis tucked away in a remote valley. Surrounded by a small mountain range, this location offers a true escape from the everyday hustle and bustle—so much so that you’ll likely have no cell service during your stay.

Lake Highlights

  • Unique Arm & Channel: A long arm stretches several hundred feet into two dry creek mouths, featuring a 5–7 foot channel ideal for fishing.

  • Varied Depths: Depths range up to 12 feet on the cliff side, offering diverse opportunities to land your next catch.

  • Rugged Access: A small SUV or higher-clearance vehicle is recommended for the 2.7-mile drive; a usually dry stream bed could hold water after significant rainfall (no 4WD needed, just drive carefully).

For anglers and campers seeking peace, quiet, and adventure, Waterboo Lake promises an unforgettable getaway, far from the reach of modern distractions. Book your trip now and immerse yourself in nature’s tranquility.

This property requires that you book at least one full-day.
