Upper Cache is a little further from the bridge, so it is slightly more "private" than downstream Lower Cache Creek Beach.
Legal status:
Private property marked with "Do Not Trespass" signs.
How to find it:
To Lower Cache Creek: To find the first skinny-dipping hole from the cities of Clear Lake or Lower Lake, take Highway 53 north to Highway 20, turn east (in the direction of the Colusa County town of Williams), and go about seven miles. At the Cache Creek Bridge (Lake County mile marker 37.07), where Highway 20 crosses over the creek on a curve, look for the swimming hole. Park in the lot on the west side of the bridge, then walk downstream to the nude area. Once there, walk a short distance upstream to the clothing-optional area. The beach usually draws fewer visitors than Lower Cache.
The beach:
Usually has a little less sand than Lower Cache.
The crowd:
Nudity evaporates on weekends, but a few skinny-dippers visit on weekdays. If you come during the week, it's likely you'll be the only person present.
Problems:
Not much weekend nude use; less sand than at Lower Cache; “do not trespass” signs; visits by police.
