The boundary between the cities of Westlake Village and Thousand Oaks crosses the lake.
A number of houses are located on an island inside the lake that is connected by La Venta Drive.
The lake is stocked with bass but fishing and boating is restricted to Westlake Village residents with guests and permits.
The Westlake Yacht Club teaches people of all ages how to sail in the lake.
At the end of the lake there is a rabbit sculpture named Cottonsail.
