Boggs Lake Ecological Reserve, Protected natural area in Lake County, California, United States
The ecological reserve spans 46 acres of land, featuring a volcanic lake that fills with rainfall during wet seasons and gradually dries in summer.
The reserve, established in 1973, takes its name from Henry C. Boggs, who operated a mill near the lake in 1866.
Local conservation groups and scientific researchers conduct regular studies of endangered plant species and monitor the western pond turtle population.
Visitors can access the reserve by taking Highway 175 from Kelseyville to Bottle Rock Road, then continuing south to Harrington Flat Road.
The lake sits in a volcanic depression covered with fine ash, creating a natural water barrier that forms an upland vernal pool.
