The various lakes and ponds in Litchfield County are ideal for motor boating, sailing, kayaking and canoeing. Many are perfect for swimming, scenery and sun. If a day of fishing is what you’re looking for, grab your pole and tackle box to catch largemouth and smallmouth bass, pickerel sunfish, rock bass and perch. Some lakes even stock rainbow, brown and brook trout in the spring – most in the 12” range.

Nestled in Goshen, in the heart of northwestern Connecticut's elegant Litchfield County, lies Woodridge Lake, the private, year-round resort community planned in it's entirety by leading environmentalists. The lake itself is huge, magnificent and famous throughout the country as a model of scientific, ecological planning.
