Failor Lake

**Location & Facilities**
Failor Lake is a 62-acre lake located in Hoquiam, Grays Harbor County, accessible via Failor Lake Road. The WDFW public access site features a gravel boat launch, vault toilet, and ADA-accessible facilities. This makes it a convenient launching point for kayakers, canoeists, and small boat operators exploring the lake.

**Fishing & Recreation**
The lake is regularly stocked with jumbo rainbow trout (averaging 4-6 pounds) through a cooperative project with the Chehalis Basin Fisheries Task Force and Washington Department of Fish & Wildlife. A youth fishing derby is typically held the Saturday before opening day, making this a family-friendly destination. The lake is also situated near the Grays Harbor National Wildlife Refuge, offering opportunities to explore the broader natural area.

**Planning Your Visit**
Before launching, confirm current access conditions and any seasonal closures with WDFW. The gravel launch accommodates small to medium-sized watercraft. Paddlers should be prepared with standard safety gear and check local weather conditions, as Grays Harbor County weather can be variable year-round.
