At a glance
Overview
The cascades at Bassett Reservoir are small drops at the outflow end of a Cheshire water-supply reservoir in the Berkshires. The reservoir itself is a watershed property, so public access around the water is limited and swimming is prohibited. Treat this as a scenic-reference pin rather than a developed visit -- read any posted watershed signage, and view only from legal public ground.
