Great neighborhood lake. there's a little beach here and if your residence of Newton, you can pay…read more$8 dollars to use the beach and jump off the platforms. You can park at the beach house. One of her little kids, and one for adults. But on the side of the lake, they're a bunch of people jumping at their own risk, but it's very, neighborly and unpretentious. I just jumped in to stay cool. I wouldn't call this lake a destination.

I stayed at a Ponkapoag tent site last summer and had a wonderful time. The lake is calm and…read morebeautiful, and there are extensive trails for hiking. I can't speak to the cabin experience, but the camp as a whole is easy to access yet also allows you to feel like you've escaped the city. The tent sites are clean, spacious and have a fire pit and a picnic table. The one we were at (and I think all of them...) have private lake access, meaning you can step out of your tent and walk straight into the water for a cool morning swim or even to fish (if you have a permit!). There is also a sanctioned swim area for children and families where there are safety ropes and water toys for everyone's use. The whole experience was restful and easy to execute. I would absolutely go again.

It's an escape from reality and you feel like at peace. If I could live here I would. Plus it's also really cheap. This place holds a very important place in my heart.

Their no electricity or running water but I think that adds to the experience of being in nature and excluded to the outside world. Truly an amazing place!
