     At Paradise Pond Dam in close proximity to Paradise Pond there are some exciting things to see, and Paradise Pond is right by the Spring Trail. All the water falling down from the sky makes Paradise Pond a wet place; the month with most of the rain is May; the driest month is January. Swamps are out of the ordinary locations and Neds Ditch right next door to Paradise Pond is no exception, and the best way to spend a winter day is on the slopes of nearby Blandford.  
   This lake is so wonderful. Have a delightful hiking adventure along the Richard Trail; if you're a golfer then a nice nearby course is Pine Grove Golf Club.
Take a hike on the Link Trail, and beaches are delightful and Sandy Beach is no exception. If you came to camp Rainbow Motel is a splendid place to do that. But wait, there's more to do right next door to Paradise Pond. There's so much to do here at Paradise Pond that you need to camp here for a while,
 
               Windy Acres Campground is a magnificent place for that. Lakes are great; Mill River Diversion Reservoir is a lake that's in the vicinity of Paradise Pond.
This place, Paradise Pond, it just has so much outdoors exciting stuff. A perfect location like Hockanum Meadows here at Paradise Pond is too good to miss, and drift down the rapids of Deerfield River in a kayak.

Barton Cove Campground
19 miles away
I have been going there for over 20 years. It is a great place to take a family and if you are lucky, you will get to see the bald eagles (I actually got to see their first flight)....Lovely campground with huge, clean wooded tent sites. Some sites overlook the Connecticut River, and a few offer access to a swimming or fishing beach. There are some high cliffs on the river side of the campground, partly blocked with post and rail fencing. Small children may not respect the fences, so that should be considered when families with kids choose their site. Overall very enjoyable, and I look forward to returning soon....
