Bontecou Lake, also known as Tamarack Swamp, is a shallow, man-made bifurcation lake in the towns of Stanford and Washington, in Dutchess County, New York, less than 5 mi (8 km) from the Village of Millbrook. Bontecou Lake straddles the drainage divide between the Wappinger Creek watershed to the west and the Tenmile River. Published estimates of its area vary between 113 acres (46 ha) and 135 acres (55 ha), but even the most conservative figures place it among the largest lakes in Dutchess County. Parts of the lake are designated as a Critical Environmental Area, since the area is a crucial habitat for both migrating and breeding waterfowl.
