orig. published in 365 Things to do in Massachusetts:
Mirror Lake is a kettle hole pond, similar to Walden Pond, formed by the retreating glaciers.
The lake was a frequent haunt when the kids were younger but for some reason we had not gone in a couple of years. We ended up having a lot of fun, and I was reminded why we used to go there nearly every summer day.
We would like to note that the site boasts that the beach has a full-serve concession stand – this was not in evidence when we were there, and had we known that we would have ported in some sandwiches. It is a little walk to get from parking to the beach – maybe 1/8 of a mile downhill on the way in (uphill with tired children on the way out).
Directions:
Route 2 West to exit 37B. If heading east on Route 2, then exit 37.
Head nrth down Jackson Rd.
Take first rt. onto Patton Rd. Go straight .8 mi
Parking lot is on your right!
Small daily fee; season passes available.
