The
Lake Hills Association |
|
The properties of the Lake Hills Association and its members cover approximately 480 acres in the Town of Fairfield, Connecticut. The area includes almost 525 private homes and approximately 80 acres of common property. Samp Mortar Lake itself has a surface area of fifty-two acres and four miles of shoreline. Approximately half of the shoreline is the common property of the Association.
Recreation facilities include 5 sandy beaches, lap swim
lanes, baseball field, playground, tennis court,
basketball court, nature preserve and 5 docks. Management and maintenance of our over five hundred
member association is entirely through the voluntary
contribution of time and talents of the members. Annual activities include children and adult swim
lessons, canoe races, summer picnics, visits by Santa and
the very popular Easter Hat Contest and Candy Hunt. The
general meeting of the membership is held in January each
year. Members are invited to the monthly board meetings,
held usually on the third Thursdays of the month at the Fairfield Woods Middle School Library at 7:30pm.

The
Lake Hills Association, Inc. was formed in 1952 when a local developer
purchased Samp Mortar Lake, Dam and associated watershed area from
the Bridgeport Hydraulic Company. 
The land surrounding the lake had been homes to generations of Native Americans including the Sasqua, Pequonnock and Mohican tribes.
