Located not more than a stone’s throw from the heart of Knowlton village, Douglass Beach offers safe swimming, a picnic area with lovely views out over the water as well a canteen and walking paths. In winter, depending on weather conditions, an ice ring is set up on the lake. You can also rent equipment and warm up in front of a nice fire!
