    Gorgeous lake perfect for picnicking, swimming, and kayaking. I was pleasantly surprised at the overall cleanliness of the area. A must-visit if you're in the area, especially during the warmer months. Highly recommend Paddle Time kayak and paddleboard rentals if you want to venture out onto the water.

    A GREAT PLACE TO KAYAK, The water can get very choppy here, if you don't mind that, the wind just pivits off the surrounding mountains , so it can change for or against, just maintain speed and course, theres a few places to duck out if you like. still a great place to go. See ya.

    Beautiful stunning lake. Very clean and well kept. Quite and relaxing. Parking lot does fill up quick. Better to get there early so you can get a good spot. Plenty of picnic tables.

    Harriman Reservoir is a wonderful lake. There are many parks situated along the water with tons of places to swim and picnic. The lake doesn't have any houses along it's shores, which adds to its scenic beauty. I highly recommended paying this lake a visit.
