Lake Mary

Lake Mary is made up of two reservoirs – the twin lakes of Upper and Lower Lake Mary.  This area attracts a variety of water birds and raptors throughout the year, and often interesting migrants in their season. The two lakes are easily viewed from Lake Mary Road along the northeastern side.
