Candlewood Lake’s Best Bodies of Water

Enjoy Tranquility at Squantz Pond

Squantz Pond is an excellent swimming hole for those that want to get away from other boat traffic and enjoy the tranquil waters of Candlewood Lake.

Get some Space in the South

Want to take your Candlewood Lake boat rental up to speed without getting in anybody’s way? Then head to the southern portion of the lake. Here you can find a great abundance of space and fewer boats, meaning that you can tear up the water all day long.

Party at Pine Island!

In the south-center of the lake, you will come across pine island. This makes not only for a great place to tour around on your Candlewood Lake boat rental, but you can also stop by to see if there’s a party going on. If not, make your own!
