Many people don't know about this little gem in the middle of Massachusetts.  I started coming here with my boyfriend when I was a teen.  All his family including cousins and their kids, aunts and uncles could always be found in the same area of the park.  It was like having an informal family reunion every weekend.  When we had our kids, we did the same thing for many years and had wonderful times here.

The breeze is constant.  I don't understand how it can be so hot everywhere else but here was this constant breeze off the lake that would cool you right down.  The water is super clean, the lawn full and soft.  Always clean areas where the picnic tables are and the sand is raked every night.  The store is great for munchies and ice cream.  

What a great place to take your family and it's so close to Worcester!!!

great place to go for fun in the sun, if you dont need a big beach atmosphere. Plenty of space with picnic tables or even just grass to picnic out in. beautiful water. Great atmosphere in general.

There are always long lines for the waterslides, and even as an adult i love going on them :)

waterslide admission is pricey but if you dont need to go on the waterslides the admission is a great price!!

This is a pretty small park/beach in Central Mass. There are three water-slides that go into a small pool, and also picnic tables along the wall where the lake starts. You must get here when they first open to claim a picnic table, but there are plenty of spots to set up your blanket on the grassy hill to the right of the slides.
The admission is pretty cheap, but more expensive if you're going to use the water-slides. I haven't been on them since I was little, but I CAN remember waiting in line forever, so if that's your thing and you're patient, it could be fun.
There is a small snack bar, which sells ice cream, french fries and onion rings and things like that, the prices are decent. They also have grills scattered around the picnic area, so if you want to bring your own stuff to make, that's cool too.
I loved going here as a kid, so I'm sure its' great for families. They get an awesome breeze off of the lake, so even on the hottest, most humid day of the summer, it's tolerable.

p.s There's also an arcade above the snack bar, I forgot about that!
