Nature's Beauty in Clamtown
Just outside the village, you'll find a small lake often called "Little Schuylkill Lake." This lake is a great spot for fishing, and you might even catch some trout there! People think this lake might have been made by humans a long time ago because there's an old, unused train station right next to it.
