Quarry Lakes Regional Recreation Area
This park contains four bodies of water: Horseshoe Lake, Rainbow Lake, Willow Slough and Lago Los Osos. Fishing is only permitted in the Horseshoe Lake and Rainbow Lake. Daily Fishing Access Permit sales fund the planting of trout and catfish in Horseshoe Lake. Fishing is also available at Shinn Pond, just east of Quarry Lakes off Alameda Creek Regional Trail. Park visitors may only launch electric or nonmotorized boats.
