Common questions
Can I swim, fish, or launch a kayak at Frog Pond?
No. It's one of the reservoirs inside Lynn Woods Reservation that feeds the city's water supply, so swimming, boating, and fishing are all off-limits here, same as elsewhere in the woods.
On a leash, yes, per the city's ordinance covering the whole reservation. Keep dogs out of the water since it's a drinking-water source.
