Area Attractions
The park?s oasis of blue water, Mohanisic Lake and Crom Pond, provide excellent freshwater fishing and boating. Popular catches include bass, perch, and sun fish. A New York State Freshwater Fishing License is required. Licenses can be purchased at town halls or a variety of sporting good stores. Both rowboats and pedal boats are available for rental; however, a regional boating permit allows visitors to launch their own rowboats, canoes or kayaks. For an additional fee, rowboat owners may also store their boats. In wintertime, the water?s tree lined border provides a winter wonderland backdrop for ice skaters and ice fisherman.

For those who are content to remain in the park?s picnic areas, there are many other activities to enjoy. All picnic areas have volleyball nets and many have softball fields or basketball courts. There is also a soccer field. Sports enthusiasts may wish to try their hand at Disc golf ? a short distance from the picnic areas. One can play either 9 or 18 holes. The rules and scorecards are located at the course and loaner Frisbees are available from the park office. The park?s hills and trails are perfect for winter sports. The young and the young at heart will enjoy sledding or cross country skiing.
