Crystal Lake has two beaches on the north end of this beautiful body of water. One is a town park called Pageant Park and adjacent to that is a state day-use park, called Crystal Lake State Park (http://www.vtstateparks.com/htm/crystal.htm) featuring almost a mile of sandy beach, bbq grills, picnic tables, play areas and boat rentals. Crystal Lake spans approximately 3 miles long by 1 mile wide with camps/ homes lining both sides of the lake. There is something for everyone here, which is why this lake is so popular during the summer months.
