July 9, 2012 (Lakeside)--Usually open only weekends and holidays, Lake Jennings will be open every day between July 30 and August 12 from 5:30 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. For only nominal fee, you can pack a picnic, enjoy marvelous vistas, watch the wildlife, take the 5-mile hike around the lake, or just relax with a barbecue in a wilderness just a short drive from San Diego and East County’s urban areas.
For only a few more dollars you can launch your boat ($8) or rent one (motorboat $40, rowboat $19), dip a line in the water — catching fish may be another story (fishing permit and state license fees apply) — or enjoy a paddle boat excursion around the 160 acre lake’s surface ($10/hour).
See the fee schedule at: http://www.lakejennings.org/fishing/prices.htm. For more information, see http://www.lakejennings.org.
Lake Jennings is located just off I-8 at Lake Jennings Park Road. Follow Lake Jennings Park Road north; a right turn on Harritt Road will take you to the entry gate—9535 Harritt Road, Lakeside, California 92040.
