The Vallecitos Water District has stopped using this lake as a source of drinking water. Today, South Lake is the newest addition to the City of San Marcos’ thriving parks system. Equipped with a parking facility and a hiking trail, South Lake is an ideal recreation spot for the residents of San Marcos.
