Though less famous than bigger San Francisco parks, it's a local favorite for many reasons.
The city also recently approved plans to move forward with opening a new section of Lake Merced Park, extending the area to include the former Pacific Rod and Gun Club, which shut down in 2015. The former public shooting range, which sits across the water from the city-owned golf course, will be renovated and expanded. This new section is expected to include more walking paths, another boathouse and pier, bird watching areas, a skateboard park and a community building and restaurant.
The depth of Lake Merced has varied over the years: levels dropped to as low as 14 feet in the 1990s due to pumping and droughts. Today, the lake has nearly returned to its original depth of 30 feet. The city now stocks Lake Merced with fish and allows fishing from its docks and piers in both the North Lake and South Lake. A fishing license is required for anyone over 16 years old; call 415-831-5500.
