    A visit to Prospect Lake is always a good idea. Since you might be in a lake visiting mood you can always take a look at nearby Guilder Pond, and at Prospect Lake you can observe Baldwin Hill. What would winter be without some skiing at Ski Butternut; if you don't mind getting covered with water, you can always go whitewater paddling on Bash Bish Brook.
Going for a hike on the Indian Trail is always a great adventure, and if you came for an overnight stay
 
   Fox Hill Camping Area is a good site to camp. This lake is so wonderful. There's some flowing water nearby, Fenton Brook is a stream you can check out during your stay, and don't leave Prospect Lake without first going for a hike along the Northrop Trail. This lake is so wonderful. Go for a hike on the Elbow Trail, and Housatonic River has a magnificent whitewater paddling spot close by.
