Description
This picnic shelter offers a perfect setting for a large gathering of family and friends to spend a day in the fresh air with panoramic views of the lake and dam. The overhead shade shelter provides for an escape from the hot sun above. Fishing is allowed year-round, subject to state regulations. Popular species caught in New Hogan Lake include striped bass, black bass, catfish, bluegill, and crappie. Below the dam, the cool waters of the Calaveras River are home to a healthy population of rainbow trout. Fly-fishing is popular on this stretch of river.

The parking lot for this area is shared with the Park Visitor Center and Headquarters Office.
