Hoover Lake is nestled in the hills above Mission, surrounded by second-growth cedar and hemlock. Its quiet shoreline and traces of old cedar plank roads hint at the area’s logging history, a modest nod to the area’s logging history. Sheltered by tall trees, the lake offers a calm, reflective spot that feels far from the city.
