Penhorn is a nice little spot in Dartmouth. Theres a well kept sandy beach great for swimming and on the other side theres a wooded area more suited for anglers. The lake is stocked annually with trout, so it is an nice spot for some relaxing bobber fishing. There's a grocery store within walking distance to make it a day with a picnic.
We loved going here in the late evening this summer, until I found a rat swimming! Now we're a bit more weary! Usually warm, great location and didn't have any closures for algae, so that's great. Did have some issues of people fishing right off the beach after the season ended, and of course no one around to enforce the no fishing rules, so definitely watch for fish hooks.
July 3, 2019, I went to Penhorn Lake. It was disgusting. You couldn’t sit on the grass as it was too long; no sand for the children to play in and it looked like a truck left big ruts in the grass from the road to the beach from dropping off Something. The washrooms look like they have never been touched in about 50 years. The water itself is nice but lake is small.
Lifeguard on duty. Good place to take your kids swimming.
Lots of fish in the lake shown by my fish finder. The lake gets stocked with trout but I didn't catch anything. Most fish seem to be in the upper part of the pond across from the beach near the trees on the other side. About 13ft deep in that area. Would have gave 5 stars if I caught anything
Beach is great for younger children. Washrooms on site.
Great spot for the kids
