About the coverage

A local lake story worth telling.

Lakeside Watersports is a homegrown operation on Candlewood Lake, a crew that grew up on this water and built a business helping people experience it at its best. From first-timers getting up on a wakeboard to golden-hour foliage cruises through the Lovers Leap gorge, we're part of the fabric of summer on Connecticut's largest lake. If you're a reporter, blogger, or producer covering Candlewood Lake, local tourism, watersports, or small-business life in the Danbury area, we're happy to share our story, our photos, and our on-the-water perspective.
