The South Charlton Reservoir in Charlton, MA is a full recreational lake without restrictions! You can boat, swim, ski and fish! This is said to be the 3rd cleanest lake in Massachusetts. South Charlton Reservoir features a great water-ski club for all that are interested. The SCRA (South Charlton Reservoir Association) Water Ski Club has been around for more than 50 years to help teach people how to water ski and wakeboard. They encourage community involvement and it is not mandatory to be a lake resident to participate in the Ski Club. The SCRA often hosts charitable events to help the Worcester County Food Bank, Why Me, and The Polycystic Kidney Disease Foundation.
