In Carroll County, a different place to cool off
Cascade Lake has existed since the 1920s. Patrick Flynn, the current owner, says he found pictures of it dating from the 1930s. (Sun photo by Jed Kirschbaum / June 19, 2008)
It is officially summer, and Marylanders not headed to the Eastern Shore or Deep Creek Lake have several swimming choices. One of the older but lesser-known options is Cascade Lake, a man-made, spring-fed, 6-acre lake off Snydersburg Road in Hampstead. The lake is open from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. seven days a week. Its Web site is www.cascadelake.com.
