Carnegie Lake is privately-owned lake that was created for the Princeton University rowing team by damming the Millstone River. While the long and narrow lake is used for the college rowing team, it is also open to the public for boating and fishing. The lake is located in a suburban area but still has tree-lined shores and peaceful waters for birdwatching and enjoying nature. If paddling the water when the rowing teams are practicing, be sure to pay close attention as they move at fast speeds and are harder to maneuver than smaller boats, giving them the right of way.
