Notes:This is a much larger lake than the photo, taken at Tahkenitch Landing Campground, would suggest. Primarily managed as a warm-water fishery, Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife does not stock it with trout.
There are no hiking trails at Tahkenitch Lake its self, but just accross Hwy 101 and slightly south is the Tahkenitch Day Use Area which contains the trailhead for the Tahkenitch Dunes Trail, and the Three Mile Lake Trail.
