Spring Lake features a fresh-water lagoon for recreational swimming in the summer. The lagoon features a sandy beach, lawns shaded by redwoods and picnic sites.

Swimming

The Spring Lake swimming lagoon provides room for free swim and lap swims in an open-water setting staffed with lifeguards. Swimming hours are 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. daily beginning July 1. The lagoon is filtered, chlorinated and tested regularly to ensure it exceeds water-quality standards. Admission is free. Free life vests are available for loan at the rental office next to the lagoon. 

The Water Park

Note: The inflatable water park will not be installed for 2021. It will return in 2022. The Spring Lake swimming lagoon is home to a seasonal, inflatable water park with floating slides, climbing walls, bridges, balance beams, jumps, and trampolines. Hours are 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily from Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day. Admission is $10 per person, with season passes available. Children must be 6 or older and 42 inches or taller and know how to swim. Learn more about the water park

Water Bark Dog Swim

The Spring Lake swimming lagoon each fall hosts a multi-weekend off-leash dog party known as the Water Bark. Upon the close of the summer swim season, dog owners are invited to let their pets swim and play in the lagoon before it is drained for the year. Dates for a 2021 Water Bark have not been set.
