The residents acquired the land in June 1997 and asked Delaware Highlands Conservancy to draft a conservation easement for the 210-acres that would keep it forever natural. Working together, we made a number of drafts until completing a final easement that met everyone’s goals. The easement protects the excellent water quality of this natural glacial lake by limiting development of the 210-acres to just six residences fronting Coxton Lake Road.
