The Army Corps of Engineers announced July 13, 2017, it has temporarily closed until further notice the swimming area at Hop Brook Lake Recreation Area on Rte. 63 in Middlebury. The lake was closed to swimming because water quality testing indicated bacteria levels in the lake exceed Connecticut State Standards. The Corps will retest the swimming area and reopen it if test results are satisfactory.
The Corps advised that the remainder of the park at Hop Brook Lake will remain open daily for picnicking, hiking and other recreational activities. Only the swimming area has been temporarily closed.
