About Edwards Lake
This is a small, shallow lake, fed at the north end by a picturesque, shaded stream with moss covered rocks. The north end of the lake has marshy edges which attract herons and waterfowl and make this lake a good bet for bird-watching. The remainder of the lake is surrounded by mature Douglas Fir and Spruce forest. There are two shaded sites near the stream and one open site in a meadow site on the lakeshore. This lake is very popular with fishermen and there is also private property along the shoreline.
Electric motors only.
