Washining Lake is the larger of the Twin Lakes, covering 569 acres of surface area. The lake reaches depths up to 80 feet, with an average depth of 32 feet.
Washining Lake rests in Litchfield county in the town of Salisbury. It is under 30 miles from the Connecticut, Massachusetts and New York tri-point. The lake is also under two hours from both Springfield and Hartford.
The area's original settlers were the Mahican Native Americans. Both of the Twin Lakes were named after the two daughters of a Mahican chief. Washining can be translated to "laughing water."
Residents enjoy spending their day on the water swimming, boating, and inner tubing.
This lake has a large variety of fish including largemouth bass, smallmouth bass and sunfish.
Whether you are looking to retire or just wanting to make that lake home dream a reality, purchasing real estate on Washining Lake is not just gaining a property, but a way of life.
