Diamond Lake is a privately owned 20-acre body of water located south of Route 94 in the eastern section of Glastonbury. It is primarily spring fed and has a spillway on the southeast shore that allows for a six-inch drawdown. The maximum depth of the lake is about 12 feet and residents report “good” fishing. Lakefront development is sparse to moderate and most homes have left trees and natural vegetation along the lake. A large development north of the lake is underway but the road drains from it are not designed to flow to the lake. Local road drains do flow to the lake but residents do not report seeing the lake turn brown from siltation during flood events. Agricultural impacts on the lake are minimal.
