Detert Reservoir
About Detert Reservoir
In Lake County, California, Detert Reservoir provides a quiet spot for those seeking a peaceful outdoor escape. Covering a modest acreage, its waters remain shallow, which adds to its unique character compared to deeper lakes nearby. The reservoir sits near the towns of Hidden Valley Lake and Middletown, making it accessible for locals and visitors alike. The surrounding landscape includes Sugarloaf Ridge State Park, which frames the reservoir within a broader natural setting. This context enriches the experience for those who appreciate the outdoors beyond just the water's edge. The shallow nature of the reservoir means the water is easily reachable and creates a different kind of lakeside environment than deeper bodies of water.
