Dark Brook Reservoir Boat Ramp

Located off West Street in Auburn across from Randall School, this boat ramp provides access to the 386-acre Dark Brook Reservoir (also called "Electric Pond").

Note that the ramp is closed for trailer launching, but hand-launch access is available for kayaks and small boats. The Massachusetts Turnpike bisects the pond, though boats can easily travel through a culvert to access both sides of the reservoir.
