Westchester Tower rentals are conveniently located next to many of the hotspots you must see in the summer. 

Buddy Attick Lake Park

Buddy Attick Lake Park is a vast 23-acre-park with a beautiful lake at its center. It acts as the go-to place for families or friends to enjoy an afternoon picnic while feeling that cool lake breeze. Solo or group hikers and walkers also take advantage of the striking 1.25-mile-path, perfect for all skill levels. If that’s not enough, you can also try your hand at fishing.

Included here are both indoor and outdoor pools to accommodate swimmers for all seasons. There are large pools for getting in laps and small pools for the kiddos to enjoy. If you’re up for exercise, you can also get your workout in at the cardio and weightlifting rooms!
