WE ARE A NOT-FOR-PROFIT CORPORATION DEDICATED TO CONSERVing TWIN ISLaND LAKE THROUGH OUTREACH, RESTORATION, AND RESEARCH. 

Twin Island Lake (formerly, Mud Pond) (TWIL) is an approximately 60-acre lake, nestled at the base of Stissing Mountain in the Town of Pine Plains, Dutchess County, New York. TWIL sits at the headwaters of the Wappingers Creek Watershed. Its waters flow downstream through a culvert and discharge directly into Stissing Lake (SL) via a wetland stream. SL has a public boat landing located approximately 150 feet to the east of the wetland stream and a public beach located mid-lake on the eastern shore. Stissing Lake, in turn, flows into Thompson Pond (TP), a Nature Conservancy sanctuary, via another culvert and a wetland stream. Waters flow downstream from TP into the rest of the Wappingers Creek Watershed.

Consider donating to the TWILA mission to keep this lake beautiful for generations to come.

Your donation allows us to connect people and create partnerships around the world. We run conservation projects with our partners, seeking the most constructive solutions.
