With that comes loud and fast aquatic toys. The Lake Association (or MASS DEP) regulate the flow pattern of water craft to a counter-clockwise direction, only. Arm powered water craft (i.e. canoes, kayaks, SUPs) have some leeway to go clockwise, BUT you have to stay close to the shore, especially if going against the grain. All in all, this is a nice lake to paddle, power boat, and fish. I'd recommend off season such as spring and fall if you want a more tranquil experience.

It is a wide ramp, with enough theoretical room for at least three vehicles abreast, at a time. However, the parking area is a few hundred feet away, back up the road. The Lake itself is very nice.

However there is no public boat docking. There are also no restaurant or sanitary facilities located on the lake to the public. Occasionally ice cream trucks roll through for the little ones. If you're looking to kayak, paddle-board, relax and go tubing -- and you aren't a resident or local, I recommend finding street parking or walking over to the lake. Be careful, as some residents can be very picky about the parking situation The beach is open to the public from June 16-August 17. If you decide to park in the small beach lot, residents pay $5 and non-residents pay $10

That said, Lake Webster is well maintained, and offers sufficient area for skiing, tubing, sailing, or swimming. On a hot day, it's a great spot to cool off with a dip, and it has three restaurants, all with accessible docks on the lake. Samuel Slater's Restaurant is the best restaurant on the lake and offers great views from their deck. It's located on a small beach at Indian Ranch. Indian Ranch is an RV park and entertainment venue and owns a small paddlewheel boat called the Indian Princess that offers sunset cruises during the summer months. There is a nice beach on the lake, at least two boat launches, three marinas, kayak rentals and unfortunately only one recently closed gas station. Considering the modest size, it may surprise fellow Yelpers that the lake boasts one of the longest names in the world, Lake Chargoggagoggmanchauggagoggchaubunagungamaugg. Some say the actual name isn't the 45-letter behemoth above, that it's really Lake Chaubunagungamaug. Regardless, since I can now pronounce the long version, I'm sticking with that one!

This was our first visit to Millers Pond, and we had a great experience.

The parking lot wasn't very full when we arrived, but there are a lot of no parking signs on the road leading up to the park so I can only guess it must get really busy in the nicer months. We did a nice loop around the pond, there was mild terrain to navigate and with spring on its way, but the leaves not fully out yet the views were beautiful. We'll come visit again for sure, looks like there are a lot more trails to explore.

We were pleased to see an assortment of picnic benches, trees that hovered beyond us, and play areas for children. The lake itself was beautiful too.

The primary aspect of this park which I really loved was that the benches, playgrounds, trash disposals, etc despite being present, were placed in a strategic way so the ambience and "feel" of the nature within the park wasn't really altered with. It allows visitors to experience the peace and quiet while enjoying meals, swing sets, etc. Everything was tidy and truly looked well maintained.
