There are also trails that go up into the hills behind the lagoon where there are also cabins that are available for overnight stays. There are also ranchos with grills for picnics, playgrounds, a soccer field, a basketball court, a camping area, bathrooms, and a hall where community activities take place. Pets are allowed.
