Activities and Amenities

Clough State Park is located on the shore of Everett Lake, a 150-acre lake formed by a dam on the Piscataquog River. The park has a 900-foot sandy beach, playing fields and large picnic areas. A boat ramp is available for non-motorized boats only. Portable toilets are available at the beach. There are no lifeguards on duty.

*Note about GPS Navigation: Check your destination/location carefully as some GPS applications may be inaccurate. Clough State Park is not accessible from the Hopkinton-Everett Trails Area (Dunbarton Riding Area) off of Ray Road (Burroughs Road is a gated/dirt road). For an alternate address use Everett Dam Road in Weare, NH (the state park beach is located next to Everett Dam).
