With four miles of hiking and biking trails (motorized not permitted) around the forested lake and the wooded upper meadow, there is lots to see if you enjoy nature and wildlife. Our sports field complex has a lit basketball court, sand volleyball court, a picnic area, and a baseball and soccer practice field with a backstop and goal. Lake Godstone is 40 feet deep and stocked with bass, bluegill, and channel catfish. Fishing is very good and there are lots of openings through the woods with nice fishing spots. We also built a new crappie pond below the lake in 2020. Surrounding the lake are five partially covered docks used for fishing, swimming, and boating.
