Dear Woodland Springs, Inc. Homeowners,

Please be advised that the condition of Woodland Lake can develop the planktonic algae. This can turn potentially toxic algae at any point in the future, so caution should be made for swimmers and pets.

Woodland Lake is very shallow and has an abundance of foreign matter that can turn into algae. The weather conditions with the extreme heat increases these events that cannot be controlled.

We will let you know when we have been notified that the lake has reached a critical state, but we want to forewarn everyone to use caution.

REMINDER: LAKE WOODLAND IS A SWIM/PLAY AT YOUR OWN RISK LAKE. THE WATER QUALITY IS NOT ROUTINELY TESTED FOR BACTERIAL OR ENVIRONMENTAL CONTENT, ETC.

buoy markers will be placed out in the middle of the lake when it is not safe to swim in lake, drink lake water, FISH, or water your lawns. This will normally follow a lake treatment. Please check this website or contact Kirkpatrick management company for the latest information . REMINDER: Lake Woodland is a “swim at your own risk” lake. The water quality is not routinely tested for bacterial or environmental content, etc.

2016 Lake Survey

In 2016, the WS Board elected to conduct a survey of Woodland Lake.  The previous survey was conducted in 1984 and a lot has changed in 20 plus years.

The survey, which was conducted by Aquatic Control, was designed:

  • To understand the health of our ecosystem and erosion impact

  • To identify, plan, and budget for any corrective actions that may be required to protect and preserve our neighborhood asset
