Just 2.5 Miles up the seasonal access road from the yurt. There's a beach, playground, and you can rent boats. There are also bathrooms and showers if you don't care to bathe in the stream. Hike there from the yurt or brave the road if you have high clearance. You can also drive there by going west through Stephentown and then turn left at route 22. It takes about 15 minutes but frankly so does the dirty road as it's a bit rough and you have to go slow unless you have a jeep or other all terrain type vehicle.
