Onteora Lake

"Located at one of the most popular gateways to the Catskill Forest Preserve, just three miles west of historic Kingston, the 3,000-acre Bluestone Wild Forest, has something for everyone. Its lake, ponds, trails, old quarries, hemlock and oak forests on gently rolling hills - and an occasional cliff- are ideal for hiking, mountain biking, fishing, hunting, trapping, snowshoeing and cross-country skiing. There is developed access to Onteora Lake off State Route 28, one of the few publicly accessible lakes in the Catskills." https://www.dec.ny.gov/lands/75323.html

Crystal Lake

Crystal Lake

Crystal Lake Wild Forest is 497 acres, and includes a 32-acre man-made lake, seeps and streams, wetlands and an old beaver pond. It's considered part of the Catskill Forest Preserve, although it's a detached parcel outside of the Catskill Park Blue Line.

Greenville Detached Forest Preserve

Most people when they think of the Catskill Forest Preserve don't think of the Town of Greenville as having any of the Catskill Mountains in it. But the state owns a small, dedicated forest preserve parcel off of Hillcrest Road and Spring Valley Roads in Greenville/New Baltimore. As a kid I used to ride my bicycle out that way, past the heavily wooded Forest Preserve, although there isn't a great deal to say about it -- it's hardly unique.
