What relocation looks like in Newtown
One of two Lake Lillinonah towns that also borders Lake Zoar, with a real marina at Eichler's Cove.
Newtown is one of only two Lake Lillinonah towns that also border Lake Zoar (Southbury is the other), giving buyers a choice between two different lakes without changing towns, and the only one of the two with a full-service marina on the Zoar side.
- Why people choose it
- Buyers weighing two different lakes, Zoar's longer river-like runs or Lillinonah's quieter coves, who want the option without picking a different town.
- Nearby
- Eichler's Cove Marina on Lake Zoar (marina, boat launch, small beach, permit required), and the Pond Brook Launch on the Brookfield/Newtown line for Lillinonah access. Convenient to I-84 and Route 34.
- The trade-off
- No full-service marina on the Lillinonah side, mostly private and community docks there, traded for direct access to two lakes and a real marina on the Zoar side.
