I remember going to Lake Sherwood with the family before all the houses were built around it. Like the ancient oaks that enhance the community, Sherwoods deep historical and cultural roots are equally fascinating. Long before David Murdock purchased the land in 1984, Sherwood already had many historic landmarks. Lake Sherwood, originally Potrero Lake, is the oldest man-made lake in California. It was built in 1904 and is approximately 165 acres. It was changed to Lake Sherwood when the surrounding areas, used for the filming of Robin Hood starring Douglas Fairbanks, Sr. in 1921, became known as Sherwood Forest and Maid Marian Park.
