Beaver Brook State Park, State park in Windham County, United States.
Beaver Brook State Park is a 401-acre natural area in Connecticut centered on Bibbins Pond, a 20-acre water body held back by a man-made dam. The land connects to the Air Line State Park Trail and provides wooded paths along with water access for recreational use.
The park was established in 1955 by Connecticut's Department of Energy and Environmental Protection as a public recreation space, funded by a bequest from George Dudley Seymour. This founding reflected the region's commitment to preserving natural areas for public use.
The undeveloped setting allows people to pursue outdoor activities like fishing and non-motorized boating on the pond in a natural environment. This connection to water-based recreation shapes how visitors experience and use the land.
The main parking area on Back Road provides ADA-accessible facilities and a seasonal boat launch for non-motorized watercraft. Visitors should check ahead about the boat launch schedule since it operates only during certain months of the year.
Between 1994 and 1998, Bibbins Pond held Connecticut's state record for brook trout populations. This notable fishing period left a lasting reputation that still draws people interested in trout fishing to the location.
