}}Vasona Reservoir is an artificial lake located in Los Gatos, California, United States. A {{convert|152|acre|adj=on}} county park surrounds the reservoir[7] and provides limited fishing[8][3] ("catch and release"), picnicking, and informal play activities. Although swimming is not allowed,[10] human-powered boating is permitted in the reservoir.[11]

History

The reservoir was formed by the Vasona Percolating Dam, built in 1935 across Los Gatos Creek.[12] It is the smallest reservoir owned by the Santa Clara Valley Water District.[13]

Albert August Vollmer, who came to the area in 1887, named the area after a pony he had had as a child.[12]

Vasona Lake County Park
