proper use, protection, and maintenance of the ecosystem comprising the lake and its surrounding wetlands and forested areas, as a high quality natural resource for the benefit of both the property owners and the general public. Lake Bonaparte is located on the western edge of the Adirondack Park in northern Lewis County. The lake is about 1286 acres with approximately 350 homes and cottages, where the people living and visiting the lake enjoy the recreation opportunities. There are no homes and cottages on the western side of the lake, where twenty-four miles of shoreline borders Fort Drum. The lake is known for its fishing. Many species of fish can be found in Lake Bonaparte, including Lake Trout, Walleye Pike, Great Northern Pike, Rock Bass, Crappie, Large and Small Mouth Bass, Perch, Bullhead and Bluegill. The lake was named after the Bonaparte family. The brother of Napoleon Bonaparte, Joseph, and his family are said to have escaped here from Europe after his famous brother was arrested. According to the DEC website, they hid at Green Pond in the rocky ledges and caves to avoid hired assassins. Lake Bonaparte is truly a beautiful lake that everyone should take the opportunity to enjoy! The Bonaparte's Cave State Forest and the Sand Bay State Forest are both accessible lands in the area open to the public to explore. |
