​The 250 acre lake, referred to as Puddingstone Reservoir, has approximately five miles of shoreline and is divided into three activity areas: boating, fishing and swimming.  An area for swimming is located on the South Shore of the facility and is open for swimming THURSDAY - SUNDAY from mid July through Labor Day weekend. Lifeguards are on duty from 10:00AM to 6:00PM. The swim beach can also be accessed from your boat. There is a boat landing on the north side of the dock. Please remember that the cove is a 5 mph area.
