About Silver Lake State Park

This compact park in Hollis centers on a sandy beach that runs along a 34-acre lake. Visitors often come to swim, picnic, or take a boat out on the water. Picnic tables and canoe and kayak rentals are available. A short loop trail begins at the beach, and longer hiking paths leave from the main parking area into the nearby town forest. The park is open on weekends only, and day-use fees apply. Pets are not allowed, and alcohol is prohibited.
