Mascuppic Lake is a 217-acre lake shared with Dracut, ringed mostly by private homes but with two public footholds: the town's swimming beach on the northwest shore and a MassWildlife trailer ramp on the far eastern corner off Willowdale Avenue. Ice fishing draws almost as much of a crowd here as summer boating.
