Henry Hagg Lake (also known simply as Hagg Lake) is an artificial lake in northwest Oregon, in the United States. The reservoir is an impoundment of Scoggins Creek, which drains a small portion of the eastern side of the Northern Oregon Coast Range.[3] The lake and creek are part of the Tualatin River’s watershed in the Tualatin Valley.[4] It is located about 5 miles (8.0 km) southwest of Forest Grove.[5]
The lake is named for Henry Hagg, an Oregon dairy farmer who was active in local agricultural committees during the first half of the twentieth century.[6]
