All limericks aside, the island of Nantucket is an entirely agreeable summer retreat beloved for its undeveloped landscapes, sand-padded beaches and small-town charms.
Minutes from Old Sturbridge Village, the Corps, State and town-managed areas offer facilities for boating, picnicking and swimming. The reservoir area under management by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has two boat ramps on the 360-acre lake; a canoe trail boat launch and a fourth boat launch are in Holland, Massachusetts at Holland Pond. Good bass fishing, and hunting are also available.
