Estrella Mountain Ranch Lakes

North and South Lakes are private lakes that are available for residents and their guests only. Combined, these lakes boast over 72 acres of water for fishing, boating, or gazing at the ever-present waterfowl. Both lakes have a sandy beach where families can build sandcastles or enjoy picnics, however, no swimming or wading is allowed in the lakes. The average depth of each lake is about eight feet and each is stocked as needed to provide both sport fishing and algae control. The sport fish include Bass and Channel Catfish, while Koi, Tilapia, and Grass Carp keep the algae under control. Both lakes are monitored weekly by a contracted marine biologist. This is to ensure the waters meet the standards of the State of Arizona Department of Environmental Quality.

The Estrella Mountain Ranch North Lake is the home of our "Yacht Club.' Residents and their guests can enjoy the use of our sailboats, paddle boats, canoes, electric Sundolphins, and kayaks all stored in our lakeside boathouse. Boats are available weekends and some weekdays with an Estrella Mountain Ranch homeowner identification card. Bring your family down to the Yacht Club to check out a boat and share a relaxing time on the lake. It's a great way to spend an afternoon or a few hours.

There are over forty acres of manicured green lawns surrounding the North and South Lakes, with picnic ramadas, barbecues, and natural outdoor amphitheater.
