Indian Hill
Suburban Neighborhood in Worcester, Massachusetts

Recreational lake with public beach
Indian Hill is bordered to the south by Indian Lake, a recreational Worcester waterway. Canoeing, kayaking and boating happen at the lake, which has the city’s only public boat ramp. But noise is not really a concern. “For its size, it’s not dominated by boats, which is kind of nice to see,” McGuiness says of Indian Lake. “It tends to be a little quieter.” Shore Park has tall trees, picnic tables and a public beach. The 4-acre Indian Hill Park has basketball courts, a baseball diamond and a multipurpose field. Kids play on the park’s playground, and people of all ages use its walking trail for exercise. Woodsy hikes take place at the dog-friendly Nick’s Woods.
