Children's Lake
Overview
This seven-acre, man-made lake dates to the1750s when it was dammed to power the iron works. It is fed by some 30 natural springs which bubble to the surface from subterranean caves estimated to be 1800 feet below the surface. They deliver about 22 million gallons of crystal clear, 53 degree water a day, which cools the atmosphere around the lake. The water appears to be boiling, thus the name of the village.
Residents and visitors alike enjoy this picturesque lake by feeding the ducks, fishing, taking leisurely strolls and participating in seasonal activities around the lake.
