Mahopac

Live your best lake life in this waterfront community. Originally a summer cottage getaway in the mid-to-late 1800s, over the years Putnam County's Mahopec has evolved into a thriving town of full-time residents and Manhattan commuters. A massive library overlooking the water doubles as a community center, complete with a local history room and a law center, while the Putnam Arts Council ensures locals stay up-to-date on visual and performing arts.
