Located off of Old Linden Road, BMPOA's Deer Lake is a great source of entertainment for Blue Mountain Property Owners, their guests, and renters. Whether you're looking for a place to cool off on a hot summer day, or just a place to relax and enjoy the multitude of diverse ecosystems our beautiful mountain has to offer, Deer Lake is the perfect place!
The lake offers a well-kept, sandy swimming area and a large floating dock that permits access to the center of the lake. A security guard will be on duty during the peak season, however there is no life guard at any time, swim at your own risk. Please see Lake Policies Safety section below for more information.
Only Blue Mountain property owners, their renters, or their guests may use the common area. A current Blue Mountain Recreational Area Pass is required to be with the property owner or renter/guest when using the common areas.

The property owner must accompany all guests under the age of 18 to the recreation area to accept responsibility as the sponsoring property owner. Renters must obtain their recreational pass from their property owner.
Persons without a current pass may be asked to leave or be declared as trespassers and reported to the County Sheriff.
Residents are asked to use good judgement and common sense when sponsoring guests to the lake. Repeated or frequent sponsorship of large numbers of guests can inconvenience other residents or call into the question the nature of the sponsorship ( e.g. selling access, running a business.)
The Executive Board reserves the right to review and adjudicate all allegations of abuse or violation of any provision of these policies, as well as to amend them as necessary to accommodate emerging situations.
