Willow Hill Reservoir is located directly behind Folsom High School. Occasionally the high school cross country team uses the path for events, so you may want to check before going there. There are nice restrooms at this location. There is a ADA accessible fishing dock where I have been able to catch fish. I like this location because they have some of the largest sunfish I have ever seen although they can be hard to catch.
