As September arrives, Pleasant Lake slips into what we like to call the secret season. Summer lingers in the warmth of the days and the inviting temperature of the lake, but there’s a new stillness in the air. The crowds have thinned, the pace has slowed, and nature seems to exhale, making space for quiet moments and gentle transitions.
Misty Mornings, Golden Evenings
Mornings often greet you with a veil of mist rising off the water, a reminder that Autumn is near. This is the perfect time to take your coffee down to the dock and watch the first light spread across the lake. By evening, golden hour casts its spell, painting the shoreline in soft hues of amber and gold. A glass of wine on the lawn or a paddle across the still water becomes more than just an activity - it’s a memory in the making.
Summer Warmth, Autumn Hints
The lake remains warm enough for swims that feel like pure indulgence, while the surrounding trails begin to reveal their first brushstrokes of Fall color. Crisp mornings give way to sunlit afternoons, inviting long walks, quiet reading on the porch, or simply basking in the peace that comes when the world slows down.
A Getaway for Every Traveler
For couples seeking romance, solo travelers craving reflection, or families looking for a peaceful getaway, this season offers the best of both worlds, the ease of Summer and the beauty of Fall. It’s a gentle landing after the energy of Summer and the perfect beginning to New England’s most breathtaking season.
The secret is out: September at the lake is nothing short of extraordinary. Plan your escape today and discover the beauty of the secret season at Inn at Pleasant Lake.
