Saunders Lake

Saunders lake is a typical dune lake of the Oregon coast. It is 52 acres in size and has a shoreline of 4.1 miles. The maximum depth is 35 feet and average depth is 11 feet. There are numerous fish species in the lake both warm and cold water. Largemouth bass, Smallmouth bass and a variety of pan fish are found along the shoreline. While Rainbow trout and Cutthroat trout cruise the open water.

The lake has a speed limit of 5 miles per hour, which makes it a great lake to paddle around enjoying the scenery. We have a row boat and canoe available for a flat fee of $25.
