     Black Brook Reservoir is always a pleasure to visit. This lake is so wonderful. The view of Great Moose Hill from Black Brook Reservoir is charming, and camping at Beartown State Forest is always a good experience. Good hiking is available along the Link Trail, and after a long day outdoors Elm Motel is a magnificent location to spend a night or two. This lake is so wonderful. There are some great whitewater spots on Westfield River, and there's glorious hiking  
   along the County Road Trail.
Gotta ski! Otis Ridge is a good location to do that; you're almost certainly addicted to lakes, Cochran Pond is one of those close by. All the water falling down from the sky makes Black Brook Reservoir a wet place; the wettest month of the year is regularly August, that's the one that rains the most, and the driest month is January. Having a good time at Black Brook Reservoir is trouble-free. Whitewater paddling is not for everyone
 
               but if it's for you then we recommend Westfield River - North Branch, and if you came to camp Laurel Ridge Camping Area is a glorious place to do that.
