21.01.2022 Visitors to Lake Somerset can enjoy a new designated stop off point this summer! Located north of the Spit and accessible only from the water, the stop off poin...t can be used by boats, personal watercraft and paddle craft. You can set up for the day (no overnight camping), drop in for a leisurely picnic or just to stretch your legs. The stop off point is designed to provide a convenient and safe area for visitors to pull off the water and take a break. Signage has been installed at the stop off point, along with a buoy on the water to direct visitors to the area.
