| SOME FACTS ABOUT LAKE BONAPARTE: Lake Bonaparte was named after Joseph Bonaparte, brother of Napoleon, who was exiled from Spain and came to live in Northern New York. He resided for a while in Natural Bridge, N.Y. and had his summer villa on the lake. The lake has twenty-five miles of shoreline and parts of it border on Fort Drum, the home of the 10th Mountain Division. It is 768 feet above sea level and contains nine islands. It is over two miles long and is spring fed. The fish population includes wall eyes, great northern pike, rock and black bass, perch, and bullheads. There are two public marinas, a state boat launch, a public swimming area, and two restaurants. The recorded range of temperatures is from a high of 110 F to a low of minus 52 degrees. It once was the home of Boy Scout camp and a famous resort known as the Hermitage Hotel. The lake has an active conservation club and you are invited to visit its web site, www.lake-bonaparte.org for further information.
