Waushakum Pond
Our pond is a place for relaxation, play and friends year round. Whether it's floating, fishing or water sports in Summer, ice skating, cross country skiiing or hockey in the Winter there's always good times. Sometimes we even slow it down and watch the swans float by as we take in a sunset. It's often easy to forget you're in MetroWest Massachusetts
