Welcome to Lake Gardner  Amesbury, MA

The Lake Gardner Improvement Association is a group of Amesbury residents advocating for Lake Gardner, its beach, and the surrounding Powow Conservation Area. We also provide essential services such as water testing, and organize community activities on the lake and beach.  
On this website, you'll find up-to-date information about the association.  It's also a resource for information about the lake, beach, and conservation area.   More

Lake Gardner swim area on a beautiful evening.


Where the birch canoe had glided

    Down the swift Powow

Dark and gloomy bridges strided 

    Those clear waters now;

And where once the beaver swam

Jarred the wheel and frowned the dam.
