Beautiful Cragston Lakes has much to offer visitors. What would winter be without some skiing at Sterling Forest; get your heart pumping on the pleasant whitewater of Moodna Creek. This lake is so wonderful. Con Hook is in the vicinity and always fine to stop by, and The Garrison Golf Club is a nice golf course close by. Hiking along the Woodtown Trail is wonderful fun, and you'll never forgive yourself if you don’t go skiing at Mt. Peter if you're here.
