lake mohegan
A hamlet within the Town of Yorktown, Mohegan Lake is 2.9 square miles of compressed small-town bliss. There is something special about this chunk of land cozily nestled amid homes, small businesses and parks that bring the community together. From strolling around glittering bodies of water, such as the Camp Field Reservoir and the Hudson River to relying on the local heroes of the Mohegan Volunteer Fire Association to filling their bellies with a warm meal at the Dutch Barn Restaurant, residents and visitors of Mohegan Lake find peace and happiness day after day.
The Lakeland Central School District is the largest suburban district in the county. Its borders push into Putnam County, then swings south almost to Peekskill. District students live within six different towns in two counties: Westchester County includes the Town of Yorktown (Crompond, Mohegan Lake, Shrub Oak, Yorktown Heights), Town of Cortlandt (Cortlandt Manor), and a small area in the Town of Somers; Putnam County includes areas in the Town of Carmel, Town of Philipstown (Garrison), and Town of Putnam Valley.
