This wonderful, clean lake gets warm earlier – and stays warm later – than the rivers. It has a gravelly bottom that is shallow enough for kids to have a safe blast and deep enough to take kayaks, canoes and even a small sailboat or sailboard out if the wind picks up. It is bordered by Green Mountain National Forest.
