     If you came for an overnight stay Kettletown State Park is a good site to camp, and swamps can be such exciting places, go to Umpog Swamp since you're here at Eureka Lake. For the period of the months of summer, highs commonly are in the 80's at Eureka Lake, and throughout the night it cools down to the 60's. The cold days of the wintertime come with highs in the 30's, and night lows at Eureka Lake through the wintertime typically plunge into the 10's. This  
   lake is so wonderful. There's whitewater on East Aspetuck River for all you thrill seekers; Eureka Lake Dam is a scenic site. There are other places here than Eureka Lake, for example Mountain Pond; a golf course nearby is Ridgefield Golf Course.
Rogers Park Pond is a wonderful lake right next door to Eureka Lake, and great skiing awaits you at Woodbury. It's a glorious idea to visit Parks Pond Brook, it's in close proximity to Eureka Lake, and folks from
 
               Poughkeepsie-Newburgh-Middletown love to come here. Man, is there plenty of enjoyable stuff to do close to Eureka Lake. Don't leave Eureka Lake without visiting Putnam Memorial Park.
The view of Bogus Mountain from Eureka Lake is charming, and Quality Inn & Suites is a great place to get some rest. Not sufficient hours in a day to enjoy this place. Why not camp at Mountain Workshop while you're here at Eureka Lake; whitewater paddling is not for everyone but if it's for you then, we recommend Norwalk River. From a rain point of view Eureka Lake is a quite typical site; May is the month that gets the most rain, and February is when it's the driest.
This lake is so wonderful. Skiing at Thunder Ridge is one of those things you just ought to do; dry warm beds await you at Residence Inn Danbury.

Ella Fohs Camp Pond
14 miles away
I attended Ella Fohs as a camper and a counselor.  The time was early 1950s - 1955...I was at the camp from 1963-1969. It shaped my childhood. My mother was there when she was a kid too. I found her name carved into one of the bunks on the rafters: Sydell Freiman 1949! Shame it's not used anymore for innercity poor kids, like we were. Ellen Knebel...I'm sad to hear that the camp itself is not there any more. I worked there in 69-73...I began working on ''the senior side'' and we livrf in ''the mansion'' for one summer. ...There was a house at the middle of the camp itself where the camp director lived. Is it still there??...
