     Going for a hike on the White Horse Trail is always a great adventure, and if you're here, you could stop by Benson Branch. Get drenched paddling on Patapsco River - South Branch, and you'll almost certainly meet some people from Baltimore-Towson here. This lake is so wonderful. Good hiking is available along the Valley Trail; Johns Hopkins Pond is a tremendous site to visit for more than one day, Scotts Cove Campground is a tremendous site to camp nearby.  
   So many entertaining things to do at Johns Hopkins Pond, so little time.

Go for a hike on the Western Ridge Trail, and enjoy a round of golf at Hobbit's Glen Golf Club. Just can't get enough of Johns Hopkins Pond. Do go to Johns Hopkins University Dam if you're here at Johns Hopkins Pond, and after a long day outdoors Inn at Peralynna Manor is a great place to spend a night or two.

We can all thank the tightening of security due to terrorism for making the lake's having less access. You must have proper ID (Government/Military issued ID) to enter the post, unless it is pre-arranged such as for family reunions and such. The Ft.

Migratory birds also have put this lake on their itinerary! There is fishing in the lake and also a healthy turtle population. Beavers also have taken up residence in one area and by some of the ''missing'' trees you can tell that they have been there. There is also a resident blue heron that can often be found on the shore of the lake or amongst the greenery on the little island in the middle. All in all, though I'm not a great writer...this is a wonderful and serene place that I ...
