Bashan Lake Tours

Did you know simply being near water can help you feel more relaxed? That's why you should visit Bashan Lake. From the lovely views to the tranquil sounds of nature, this is the place to find some peace.

Bashan Lake is the perfect place to begin discovering East Haddam. This body of water comes recommended by fellow travelers, but it isn't the only thing to do here. Set aside time for other sights like Goodspeed Opera House, Gillette Castle State Park, and Machimoodus State Park to really experience what's on offer in the area.

Located across the street from the overflow parking lot for the Steam Train. Follow the tracks. This is best as a morning shot... 8-9:30 a.m. Great textures and details on this piece. I spent an hour shooting it. The "AMERICAN" logo is classic. #TroverDetour #Abandoned
