Quite a few families were there enjoying the water, but the bank was wide enough given the low water level that it wasn't too crowded. There are trails that go around the lake and up into the cliffs, can't wait to try them out next time we go. The bowl surrounding the lake is beautiful, and was fairly green when we went. I couldn't resist and jumped off the highest point, and the cool water was refreshingly brisk. A lot of folks were jumping off when we went, and the water is deep enough to make it safe.

On the side opposite the parking lot there are cliffs to jump off of, ranging from a few feet up to about 30. The lake is clear for Nevada, and even in early September a little on the cool side. There is a small campground and a day use ($7 fee for parking) area. The road is well marked and paved the entire 12 mile distance from Wells. This is one of the few high mountain lakes in the Humboldt range that you can drive up to. Unbelievable how some people working in the hospitality industry take their job for granted and take little concern or regards for the customers who are responsible for them to have a job in the first place.īeautiful little mountain lake outside Wells Nevada. This man who was walking the casino floor with his binder had no regards for me as a customer of this casino and could have cared less about me! He should realize that myself and other patrons gambling on the casino floor are paying his wages as customers, and without us patrons in the casino, this man would have NO job! I'm giving two stars for this review, with one star for the wonderful cashier who immediately called the bar for a waiter, and the other star for the wonderful gentlemen who brought me a drink in a quick and efficient manner. The cashier gets on the phone and calls the bar and within a few minutes a waiter had come by my machine and took my order and returned just a few minutes later with a drink for me. After a good many minutes passed I walked over near the cashier cage and asked the cashier if she could get me a waiter cause I wanted a drink.

I asked this employee if there were any cocktail waiters walking the floor taking drink orders and he replies 'They are coming around every half hour' and walks away going to other slot machines writing down balances off from the machines. There was a male employee with a black binder book writing down the casino's money from nearby machines where I was sitting. After arriving into the casino and finding a machine that I wanted to play, I was looking around the casino for a waiter walking the floor, but could not find one.
