Lower Lake Mary Picnic Area offers access to a number of different areas where visitors can enjoy outdoor recreation. When Lower Lake Mary has water in it, it's a popular place to fish for catfish and trout, depending on which has been stocked most recently.
When it's dry, it's a good place to fly a kite.
Lake Mary Road has wide paved shoulders and makes an excellent place to bike, roller blade or jog. Not too far away there is the Sandys Canyon Trail, which leads into an area of picturesque small canyons, big trees, and even bigger views.
This day use area is a great picnic location no matter how high or low the water is with wide open views and lots of tables and grills under ramadas. Parking is ample but trailer/RV parking can be limited on a busy day.
