WELCOME TO SANDY BEACH
Sandy Beach on Laurel Lake is the public swimming area for the town of Lee.  
This secluded beach lies in a hidden cove on the lake. The beach can be reached from Route 20.

The shady picnic grove is popular during the summer with local organizations and families celebrating birthdays or reunions.
