About Westville Lake

Numerous picnic tables, some with charcoal stoves and two picnic shelters with large 4x4 charcoal stoves are available. The shelters are reservable. Photographers, hikers and bird watchers enjoy the undeveloped lands. The abandoned old Grand Truck Railroad parallels the Quinebaug River and is a popular walking and hiking trail. Ice skating, sledding and skiing are popular in winter. For up-to-date information, call (508) 347-3705.
