Every swimming spot we vouch for, across every town we cover. Cross a town line for the good ones. That's the whole point.
1,784 acres wrapped around the 535-acre Marsh Creek Lake, just north of the borough with a Downingtown address. Sailing and fishing on the water, a seasonal pool, and the horse stable and most trails on the west side at 800 North Reeds Road.
Perkasie's borough pool has anchored Menlo Park since 1939, rebuilt in 2007 with a lazy river and a drop slide off the 13-foot deep end. Day passes run $11 to $32, it's open noon to eight all summer, and members get the lanes to themselves for 7am laps before the gates open.
5,286 acres wrapped around the 1,450-acre Lake Nockamixon, a short drive up Route 313 from Perkasie, with boating, a swimming pool, and disc golf. Open sunrise to sunset every day of the year; the lake is a rest stop for migrating waterfowl if you'd rather bring binoculars than a boat.
