About Easton Reservoir
Easton Reservoir sits in Fairfield County, Connecticut, on the Easton-Weston town line, part of the drinking water supply for the Bridgeport area. It is owned and operated by Aquarion Water Company, which manages a chain of reservoirs across the Saugatuck River watershed. The lake covers roughly 413 acres with about seven miles of shoreline, most of it wooded and undeveloped because the surrounding land is protected as watershed property rather than sold off for lakefront housing.
Because the reservoir supplies public drinking water, swimming and gasoline motors are prohibited, and the towns around it, Easton and Weston, stay largely rural rather than built up like other Fairfield County suburbs. Fishing is allowed by permit through Aquarion, and the reservoir is known locally for largemouth bass and trout. The maximum depth runs to about 56 feet in modeled estimates, with the basin shaped by the dammed valley it occupies rather than by any natural glacial outline.

Easton Reservoir depth chart, in wood
This is a Easton Reservoir depth chart you can hang: 6 stacked layers of birch, each one a depth contour — 9 ft, 19 ft, 28 ft, 38 ft, 47 ft and deeper, down to the deepest hole at about 56 ft. The lake covers about 0.7 square miles. The shape of the bottom is the real one from published soundings, so anglers recognise their drop-offs and points.
A Easton Reservoir map for the wall — or a gift
Most of these go to a cabin wall, a lake house entry, or a home office; a lot are gifts — the family that has been on Easton Reservoir for three generations, the retirement move, the first boat. The 12-inch is the desk-and-shelf size; the 24- and 30-inch boards read across a room. Add a line under the title and star your place on the shore, and it becomes the map of your Easton Reservoir.
Easton Reservoir map — the details
How big is the map?
Four sizes: 12, 17, 24 and 30 inches on the long side, from $149. Every size is cut from the same depth data of Easton Reservoir; the bigger boards carry more shoreline roads and place names.
Is it made from real depth data?
Yes. Easton Reservoir is cut layer by layer from published bathymetric soundings — each layer of birch is a depth contour, so the shape of the bottom is the real one, not decorative.
Can I add my own place on it?
Yes. At checkout you can add a line under the title (a family name, a cabin name, a year) and star the spot on the shore that matters to you.
How long does it take?
Made to order in Waterford, Pennsylvania and shipped in 7–10 days; shipping is free in the lower 48.
Can you make a lake that isn't listed?
Any lake in the United States — we hold depth data for 104,419 of them. Search for yours; if it isn't built yet we build it when you order.
