Doggy friendly lake in Putnam!…read more This pond looks like a lake since it's pretty big for a "pond" but once you're in the water you can definitely tell you're in a pond. Clean, warm in the summer, perfect spot for tubing or just floating around. Came here for the first time not knowing much about it but here's what you DO need to know: -bring sunblock -bring a floating device -fishing friendly (there's a dock just for it) -don't expect to find a nice area to sunbathe -dogs are welcome inside and outside of pond -no restrooms/changing area -plenty of parking (it's free!) -dock for tubing -kayak friendly -paddle boards too! -no shops -no food area -no drinking fountain -bug spray recommended I don't think I missed anything but that's your little wrap up. It's a lazy lake I'd say where you can just let yourself be carried away and float on your floatie. Fun spot for friends. Definitely bring drinks and food or at least a snack since there are no shops around. I totally get it that people are upset about the whole bathroom thing but truthfully it's a free pond, just drive up somewhere near by and that's it. It's ok to be a little outdoorsy sometimes just yeah, don't do it in the water lol.

A group of us had reserved a boat and captain for a few hours of waterskiing. We arrived on time…read morebut then sat around for an hour after we picked out our vests while the captain drove away and got gas, pulled the boat out of storage, prepped it, etc. They knew we were coming so why did it take them so long to get ready after we showed up? Then they told us that someone was coming in an hour for his session. We were baffled since we were supposed to have the boat to ourselves for a few hours, so even if he had gotten us on the water on time, was the new person supposed to wait at the dock for a couple of hours? The ride itself was fine, but cut short because they had someone waiting back at the dock. When we contacted the office afterwards to complain, they claimed that the ride was cut short because of safety reasons since a storm was approaching. Granted it was cloudy that day, but if it was because of a storm, then why did they take someone out immediately after our group disembarked? We love water sports and businesses that take you out waterskiing are few and far in between by NYC. Had they been professional, we would have been happy to have them be our go to place.

They know when they have you in a position where you have no choice but to pay their exorbitant fees. Charlie seems nice but notice he will never get on the phone especially when it comes to talking about money. They overcharged us to rescue a boat. Then gave us a verbal estimate of $750 to destroy our boat which then turned into a written estimate of $1700. When we said forget it they then told us they would start charging us storage charges of $36 a day!! Run far and run fast.

Launch at Lattin's Cove was solid jammed and the number of rude idiots just simply ASTOUNDING. No courtesy for other boaters/pwc's whatsoever. Couple of morons were camped out on the dock and screwed up everyone else's put in/take out routine. No surprise to see the NJ and NY registrations on their PWCs. While coming back in, 3 idiots on PWC's came screaming past us in the no wake zone to "beat" us to the ramp, then they sat there blocking one side of the launch. One fellow asked nicely if they could move over just a bit so he could launch his pwc and he got snapped at by one of the tattoo queens... "we're leaving in a couple of minutes". Definitely will not go back here on a weekend anytime soon. Very sad because it never used to be like this.

At our age, we are able to drive a boat without a license but not many places will rent a boat to you without the license. Last year we rented a boat on Long Island, in the ocean water, and it was a fun experience. This year, we were talking about it with friends and they said they'd be down to come along so we decided to put together a group outing on a lake instead, especially since we would have the kids jumping in the water also. I really wanted to get a pontoon because we had an awesome time out on a lake in SC with my sister-in-law and family. Our first boat got canceled on us because needed repairs last minute, and after scrambling for a replacement boat, the boat we ended up renting became available for a date that worked for everyone so we jumped on it. We met up with the boat manager at a public launch site, packed up our stuff on the boat and got quick instruction about driving and different locations on the lake. We dropped off our guide and headed out to have some fun exploring. The lake is huge and there are plenty of places to drop anchor and enjoy the day We settled on a sandbar in the middle of the lake. There were quite a few boats already anchored so we didn't have quite a sandbar as we planned but the kids got in the water and we all got to swim some. Theres a restaurant you can actually sail up to called, Down The Hatch, right there on the lake. There were a few spots where you could anchor, that have calmer water and even a rope swing. The whole day was great, despite a few hiccups. This weekend there was a regatta so we were able to see a lot of sailboats which was pretty cool. There were lots of people on the lake enjoying the weather. The water is cold for the first couple minutes but warms up immediately after getting in. The water feels clean. It's constantly agitated and there were plenty of boats so the water was far from calm. I didn't have that slimy feeling I felt in SC after we got out. I brought my scuba mask to test it out and wish I could have seen the flooded city beneath the water. Very many years ago, the town flooded the former town in order to introduce hydroelectricity and when the water level drops, you can see the town's church bell sticking out of the water. We didn't have time for that but hopefully this is the beginning of an annual event with our friends. We only rented the boat for 4 hours but 6 hours would have been way better. The boat manager was very cool and we hope to do more business with him in the future.
