After we were done at the festival, we wanted to also check out another spot in Lake County called The Lodge at Blue Lakes. This is a small hotel/resort with RV campgrounds near it, all surrounding a couple beautiful lakes with big hills on every side. The lakes are right on a fault line, so they are very deep and clean! At the lodge, you can rent boats and other water activity devices. We decided to rent four of their inner tubes for four hours, which ends up being under $40 per person. So off we went onto the lodge docks with our tubes, ready to soak up the sun. They allow you to bring your own drinks, so we posted our family-sized cooler right on the dock edge and jumped in! If you explore the side of the lake nearest to the highway, eventually you will hit a small, sandy beach area with a fully operational rope swing.
