Region & Climate
Nampa, Idaho, in the heart of the Treasure Valley, has a semi-arid climate with hot, dry summers, cold winters, and mild spring and fall seasons. Low humidity and abundant sunshine define the summer, while winter lows can dip into the teens. Irrigation from the Snake River supports a thriving agricultural landscape.
History
Lake Lowell, originally known as Deer Flat Reservoir, was developed between 1906 and 1909 as part of the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation’s Boise Project. It was designed to provide irrigation water to over 200,000 acres of farmland in Canyon County, making it one of the largest off-stream reservoirs in the American West.
In 1909, President Theodore Roosevelt established the Deer Flat National Wildlife Refuge around the reservoir, recognizing its importance as a habitat for migratory birds along the Pacific Flyway. This made it one of the oldest refuges in the National Wildlife Refuge System. The reservoir was renamed Lake Lowell in 1945 to honor James H. Lowell, who played a pivotal role in its establishment as president of the local water users’ association.
Today, Lake Lowell is a popular destination for outdoor recreation, offering activities such as boating, fishing, swimming, hiking, birdwatching, and hunting. It continues to serve as a vital irrigation source and a haven for wildlife, reflecting its dual legacy of agricultural development and conservation.
Location
Shopping, hospital facilities, and entertainment are just a mere 20 minutes away in either direction to Nampa, Caldwell, or Kuna, Idaho. The property is nestled between the beautiful shores of Lake Lowell and the agricultural country of south Canyon County. There are also two public parks along the lake where residents can gather for barbecues or picnics. Lake Lowell Park is located on the upper dam and includes a disc golf course. The park on the lower dam is part of the Deer Flat National Wildlife Refuge, so it is a great site for birdwatching. East of Lake Lowell is Idaho’s wine and orchard country. Some of Idaho’s finest wines are produced in the lush vineyards of Canyon County.
