Lake Harriet is a reservoir and it is rather busy during the summer. There is a campground near the lake and a day use area. It’s a popular fishing spot and there’s almost always someone fishing at the lake.


I think Lake Harriet is one of the more pretty reservoirs, but compared to other lakes its “okay.”


I can never seem to get any good pictures of it though I’ve tried multiple times throughout the year. I’ve driven past Lake Harriet more times than I can count when I’m driving down Pipeline Road.


The only time I’ve ever been alone at the lake was in January on a rainy, cold week day.
