Lake Waramaug in New Preston, a (not so) Wordless Wednesday

Lake Waramaug is the second largest natural lake in Connecticut. A step back in time, the lake retains a beautiful feel to it. Many of the homes appear as they were when New Preston and Lake Waramaug became a popular vacation spot. There is the Lake Waramaug State Park, the Pinnacle which affords a spectacular view, Lake Waramaug Country Club, Hopkins Inn and Hopkins Vineyard, The Boulders, for spectacular dining with lake views and a wonderful place to stay. Many of the homes on the lake are for rent during the summer season.

Lake Waramaug takes its name from Chief Waramaug of the Wyantenoc Tribe. They had hunting grounds and lived primarily in New Milford near what is now called Lovers Leap. They summered at the area around Lake Waramaug. Even they knew back then what a wonderful vacation spot it is!

New Preston CT in photos

The Village of New Preston is beautiful, a small section of Washington, Connecticut located moments from Lake Waramaug, the second largest natural lake which has been a popular vacation spot since the 1800's.  I will post pictures of Lake Waramaug separately.

Yesterday I went to New Preston to take a few pictures. These are just a few that I took of the Village and the Aspectuck River as it winds through the village. I also couldn't resist the photo of the New Preston Congregational Church steeple as it rises through the trees. What a view!

If you are visiting the area, be sure to stop in New Preston. A step back in time, with antique shops and a local deli, it is a wonderful place to bring your camera and take some of your own pictures! Follow the signs from Route 202  to Route 45, the village center is right there.
