Before you go

This page is only as good as the day-of access read.
Use a conservative Route 100C pull-off, not the water pin.
Treat the coordinate as a general Johnson-area swim point with honest limits.
Scout the river edge before entering.
If anything feels unclear, skip it.

Nearby Spots

Goulds Mill Falls0.4 mi awayWaterfalls
Goulds Mill Falls is a useful Lamoille County waterfall add with a quieter local feel and enough named identity to earn a page. It should stay framed as a smaller waterfall stop rather than a major destination hike.View Guide
Beard Recreation Park0.5 mi awaySwimming Holes
Beard Recreation Park is a Johnson swimming hole with an enormous Gihon River pool, a gradual entry, and park-style access right beside the Power House Covered Bridge. It is one of the easiest family-friendly river stops in northern Vermont, though the ledge, current shifts, and warm-day crowds still call for normal caution.View Guide
Journey's End Swimming Hole1.2 mi awaySwimming Holes
Journey's End Swimming Hole is a Johnson brook-side stop with protected public access to half a mile of shaded Foote Brook. The pull-off and walk are short, but this one is best approached as a scout-first splash-and-swim stream with slippery rock and falling hazards around the cascades.View Guide

Waterville Swimming Hole6.1 mi awaySwimming Holes
Waterville Swimming Hole is a Vermont swim-access page in the Lamoille County with a covered-bridge swim page with easy village access and a cleaner named identity than a vague roadside river stop. It works best as an honest scout-first river, quarry, pond, or gorge stop rather than an overhyped secret-spot page.View Guide
Green River Reservoir Swim Area7 mi awaySwimming Holes
Green River Reservoir Swim Area is the quietest-feeling public-water stop in this batch, with cold reservoir water, a boat-launch style entry, and a more laid-back north-central Vermont feel than the bigger state-park beach pages. It still reads more as a public reservoir stop than a hidden hole, but it is a strong fit when you want scenery, public access, and lower crowd pressure.View Guide
