A bit about Laurel
Lake
Laurel Lake is a 30-acre
freshwater kettle hole that was formed more than 10,000 years ago.
The lake is over 45 feet deep.
Each year, the NYSDEC stocks the lake with Brown and Rainbow
Trout. In addition, the lake is home to a diverse fish population
that includes Largemouth Bass, Chain Pickerel, Yellow Perch, Brown
Bullhead Catfish and Sunfish.
The lake and its surrounding mature woodlands,
grassland/shrublands, freshwater marshes and vernal ponds support a
wide range of flora and fauna.
Preserved land in the Laurel Lake area encompasses 480+ acres
The trailhead is on a 31-acre site that was formerly known as Camp
Molloy. The camp was in existence from 1928 until the mid-1960s.
The Town of Southold purchased the property in 2005, through the
efforts of the Peconic Land Trust. For more information about Camp
Molloy, try this link:
