Please join us for a memorial boat parade on Sunday, August 31st at 2 pm to remember and honor Nancy Batty, Theresa “Terry” Danty, and Margaret “Ruth” Lemieux, three amazing longtime residents of Waterman Lake who passed away this year.
We also extend this tribute to others in our community who have died this year—whether known to us or not, their memory has left a lasting ripple on the water and in our hearts.
They are gone but never forgotten, and we celebrate them with this memorial boat parade in their honor.
Santa is headed south for some summer fun! We will meet at the marina around 5:30 PM and start the parade around 6 PM. Remember to deck your deck with lights, decorations, and plenty of mistletoe! It’s time to row, row with some ho, ho, ho!
Treatment last week by Water and Wetlands for the algae bloom was successful. The lake is safe for swimming, boating, fishing, and all other activities.
From vast improvements to the dam to a fun-filled holiday party and so much to look forward to in the coming year. Our spring newsletter is full of information and celebrations important to all lake residents. Make sure to download your copy today!

The Executive team at CPWL wanted to share this notice we received regarding the proposed development of ‘The Residences at Greenville Farms”, which entails the construction of 75 duplex units. A portion of this project would directly abut Waterman Lake on the East side of West Greenville Road. CPWL was notified due to the abutment of this development on property owned by CPWL. We thought it was important to share this notice with our membership in our continued commitment to keeping you informed about all happenings that impact our lake.
If any resident has concerns over this project, they should follow the instructions within the notice.
