Parking is not free - it's $8 for Mass. plates, I'm not sure how much for out of state if it's different. It's such a small spot that this price feels a little high. There are some Adirondack chairs overlooking the water and some picnic tables (although they were all full when I visited), as well as an area for fishers to stand shin deep in the water, and a small beach. The bathroom facilities are a little outdated but clean. This was a pleasant spot to spend some time, but what's making me take off some stars is the bizarrely small area that's buoy-ed off for swimming. I came since my research showed this was a good spot to swim in the area, but the space marked off for swimming is so shallow and tiny that it seems more geared towards children only? I'm certain if I had tried to swim that I would immediately have felt like it wasn't enough space and tried to swim beyond the buoys. While the sand was nicely raked and manicured, although full of small rocks, it as well as the wheelchair path were covered in goose/duck poop that spread into the water, making me think it was very unhygienic. I'll swim pretty much anywhere, but sadly these two elements made me uncomfortable with doing it here. This would be a nice spot for a picnic or just to get some toes in the sand and hang out in the sunshine, but can't say I'd recommend it for swimming, even though the water felt warm when I dipped my toes in. It'd be so much nicer if they stayed on top of the bird dropping situation.

Convenient place to kayak and close to other favorite paddle destinations. Hamilton Reservoir has…read morea State boat launch, so expect some power boats and fishing vessels. Launching a kayak or canoe can be a little awkward from the edge of the boat ramp given possible boat traffic. Speaking of which, spring time is the best time to throw a line. Yes, even from a kayak. Through the summer months the "fishes" like to hide, at least from my novice hook and line. The Reservoir is bi-sected by a road causeway and essentially no a passage from side-to-side, unless you're willing to portage across the roadway. Despite, we found this to be a fairly relaxing loop to kayak and rubber neck at the cottages and high times along it's shores. Also, if you time your journey correctly, the Tree House Brewery is only the short distance away. If fresh brewed isn't your cup of tea, then I would suggest the Traveler Food & Books Restaurant which is even closer by along I-84.

It's quite a mouthful! Purportedly the largest natural lake in Massachusetts, it's only about three miles long and one mile wide, which perhaps says more about Massachusetts lakes than it does this one. Still, it's a terrific local destination. The lake has a couple of marinas, three waterfront restaurants accessible by boat, a town beach with restrooms and a snack bar, and the popular Indian Ranch entertainment venue, which also includes an RV campground and the newer and quite good Samuel Slater's Restaurant. The lake offers something for almost everyone: fishing, swimming, boating, tubing, water skiing (there's even a water ski club), kayaking, and enough open water for all of those activities to coexist somewhat comfortably. Weekdays are wonderfully peaceful, making it easy to find a quiet cove or enjoy a leisurely cruise. Summer weekends, however, are another story. When the weather is hot, the lake becomes a very busy place. There are at least three eagle nests on the lake and one gas station. Unfortunately the gas station is currently closed. Dock space is in high demand, with waiting lists at the marinas. Development around the shoreline has steadily increased over the years. While a few natural stretches remain, nearly every buildable lot has been developed, and many of the original seasonal cottages have been replaced by sprawling year-round waterfront homes. I'm very fortunate to have this lake just a few minutes from home--and even more fortunate that I can usually enjoy it during the week, when the crowds are at work.
