Swimming Near Levis Trow

[Captain Willard]

I know Lake Artubus is nearby, but I've heard there is also a stream nearby with a nice swimming hole.... can anybody confirm this, and provide directions?

There is a lake about 2 miles away. Look at a map and look for the public water access. The lake is really low but still pretty nice little beach to swim at.

Matthew,
Send an email to this guy smeurett@yahoo.com. He lives there and has built much of the trail there. His name is Steve. He can tell you anything you want to know.

My wife's family if originally from that area. Her mom lived 5 miles from Levis for the last 10 years of her life. Lake Arbutus is part of the Black River, and both county parks on the lake have beaches. There are lots of places to swim in the Black, and the water is clean. Just becareful of the current. A lot of the other water around there is cranberry bogs. Very productive for Ocean Spray, but not good swimming.

Ride safe,
:banana:

Thanks all. Here's hoping that swimming is the only way we get wet.
