2019 Map of Peach Lake

About this map

Peach Lake and the surrounding borderlands of New York and Connecticut are defined by a complex network of reservoirs and small hamlets. The landscape is punctuated by numerous family and community burial grounds, such as the Colonel Enoch Avery Cem and Mead Cem, reflecting deep ancestral ties to the townships of South Salem and North Salem. Water management for the region is evident in the presence of the Titicus Reservoir and Cross River Reservoir, which submerged earlier valley terrain to support the growing metropolitan demand. Smaller residential pockets like Twin Lakes Village and Boutonville sit among prominent elevations including East Long Pond Mtn and Ned Mtn. The South Salem Presbyterian Church serves as a central landmark in a region where the colonial-era road network has evolved into modern routes like NY 121 and NY 116, bridging the divide between Westchester and Fairfield counties.
