Part of the eastern shore is privately owned and features beautiful houses. However, most of it can be walked along a lovely waterfront path.

True 👍🏻 Great bike path surrounded by trees 🌳 . Including a few swimming spots. 🏊‍♂️ Caution ⚠️ is advised here, though. Barriers. Oncoming traffic in narrow spots.
