We love this place -- for swimming, paddle-boarding, just relaxing. It's quieter than Windsor Lake but water is a little colder.

Great short hikes just behind the Clark. Well marked, and you can stop for a drink or for art at the Lunder Center. I love hiking here!

Great hike up to Stoney Ledge, particularly in the fall. The parking lot is off Hopper Rd. (which is in turn off Green River Rd/Route 43).
