First, I loved how it was not crowded when we went here last Sunday.You just need to have your vaccination card and present it to the barangay hall to get a pass (it's for free).There's a big parking lot before going to Pandin Lake (P50 parking fee).You can either walk, around 10 mins or take the tricycle (only P30 per head).We arrived there before 11am.You will pay P550 per head, lunch included and 2 hours tour of the lake and swimming.The place was so relaxing and serene.We also enjoyed the view of Yambo lake from the other side (it is included in the package).There was a short hike up the hill and the view was spectacular.It was raining and windy that day but glad it stopped before we had our lunch in a floating cottage by the lake.The lunch was prepared by our guide,there's rice, grilled tilapia, grilled liempo, pako salad with salted egg (it was the best!),banana for dessert and water.Our guide Kuya Iking and Ronald, were very accomodating. Discussing some of the history of the lake with my husband.I would definitely recommend for people to.visit the place.A short break from the metro,bond with nature and enjoy God's creation at it's finest.By the way, better visit the place early so it will not be crowded.

I guess of one of the many hidden tourist spots in laguna. Not too many people seems to know of this place and when we came in yesterday I think it's no more than a eighty guests that came in from 8am to 4pm. From Calamba crossing you can ride a jeep to San Pablo plaze for around ₱50 and from Plaza to Pandin another jeep to Ilog for ₱13.. Let the driver know that you need to get off at Pandin lake. There's a parking small private parking located just where you will be dropping off. I think it can accommodate around 10 cars at a time. Not sure of the parking fee. From there you'll need to walk to get to the lake for about 15 mins, roughly 800 meters or less most likely. On the lake area you should be proceeding to the reception area first. ₱400 for the food and balsa ride, that include your lunch. Your meal has fried tilapias, Paco (it's like a forest fern veggy, with tomatoes onions and egg ~ Very tasty!), Liempo (optional for ₱40), 1 rice in a banana leaf, ginataang shrimp (ridiculously small shrimps ~ you'll end up eating the skin), buko juice (literally inside the buko) and water After eating on a tree covered part of the lake, you can either trek to see the adjacent Yambo lake or go for a swim with a life jacket! River is 100 feet deep for the most part and 140 for the deepest part. It is cold, green and clean. Now do take note that you only have 2 hrs to stay on the balsa while on the rive after that, you'll be obliged to back to the reception area to give way to other tourists. There's no room to take a bath. Only rest rooms to take a pee and more and it is not that clean as well. Sando shirts are available at the reception area from 150 to 180 and so on. Lastly, you can try and hike to Mount Mabilog! It's for only ₱350 fee for the you guide and it takes about an hour or 2 depending on your pace and length of breaks to reach the top. And an hour from the top to the reception area.

It's a Good place to relax & chill even with a little bit of rain! In terms of service, people are well coordinated from going in upto going out.

A hidden gem in San Pablo city awaits. The lake is surrounded by lush greeneries, the water is clean and the food is delish! Ideal for those who want a quick getaway to relax and de-stress.

Aside from the historical sites, food, and rich culture, Laguna also has great flora and fauna that can be found on the mountainous and forest areas. Mt. Mabilog is just one of the mountains lying in the province where a vast diversity of wildlife can be found. Then, the reflection of the skies can also be seen on the water of the seven lakes and that includes the Pandin and Yambo lake.

If you love nature go for this 2 hours rafting experience and enjoy the picnic with family. It's a good place to relax and enjoy nature. You will have to park your vehicle about a km away from the lake (parking fee is Php 50) because of the narrow road that is just enough for one tricyle and it is a stiff climb. Take tricycles going to the lake (Php 30 per head with max of 3 per tricycle). You will have an option to order foods (Php 550/head) before you take the ride to enjoy the full experience. When you arrive at the other side of the lake, you may want to look at the other lake (Yanbo Lake) which is just a short hike away. Important: You may want to take a pee before going to the other side as there's no CR there.

Great place! It’s so peaceful and tranquil! Food is also great

Good experience, specially with friends, i don't recommend if you're going alone, very relaxing and the water is very calm, they even serve food, the scenery is very enchanted.

Fresh food. A great experience to have lunch at the middle of the lake.

Nice place! Not really recommended for senior whos not that fit, 😁 but great place!

Lunch at Pandin Lake was a nice and relaxing experience. They now have a dedicated parking for all guests of Lake Pandin. From the parking lot, we had to take a trike to the lake. The prices of parking, trike and tour itself was regulated. No need to worry if you got charged a higher rate compared to other guests. Lunch was Filipino grilled food. You have to wear the life vests provided if you want to swim in the lake. The water was clean and cold. You can tell that the locals take pride in Lake Pandin and keep it clean and try to provide the guests with a good experience.

Relaxing lake view and boat ride, refreshing swim, a surprising view of the nearby Yambo Lake, and a sumptuous feast of fried tilapia, liempo, ginataang hipon, pako salad, and buko juice! To get to the lake, we had to park at a designated area along the main highway and take a tricycle ride since the access road is still under construction. The tricycle ride is Php 50.00 per head. We rented a boat for 2hrs at Php 550.00 per head, inclusive of a meal (additional fee for the liempo and buko juice), use of the life vests for swimming, and a less than 10-minute hike up to a view deck overlooking Lake Yambo. Pandin Lake is clean and serene and there's very few houses along its banks, so I think the water is clean and safe for swimming. Overall, we enjoyed the experience.

It's a small lake, more a lagoon, really. Being with friends made the experience of rowing out on a covered bamboo raft and having lunch at an inconspicuous corner at the far end of the lagoon was somewhat enjoyable. But beyond that and jumping into the water for a swim, there's not much else to do here. The area is undeveloped and the facilities are wanting.

We were here at Lake Pandin Dec. 24, 2022. Family of 3, we were being charged 1,800 per head for the raft with lunch, and a higher rate if no lunch was included but just the raft. If you’re a picky eater/ sensitive on food prep? this place is not for you. Tricycle from the parking lot going to the lake is 90 pesos per trip.

Superb calming environment. Stress free and very peaceful place.

The food not good and forget about the hygiene. Planty of ants so will not be comfortable You need to walk at least 10 min to reach that after driving a tricycle for 20 min at at least.

Ginataang hipon is a must try. Great balsa experience. You can swim in the lake. Our pet dog also enjoy swimming in the lake with us.

Place looks relaxing, though they do not sell any food. You need to ride the boat to order and eat there.
