Boat Storage/ Lottery Register View Cart

Harvard Park and Recreation offers boat storage at Bare Hill Pond for Harvard residents/taxpayers only.  There are storage racks that can accommodate canoes, kayaks, or paddleboards, boat moorings in the cove and near the picnic area and a small number of boat slips. Since the demand for these spots is high, we conduct a lottery each year to assign slots. 

The lottery is free to enter and winners are drawn at random in April. If you win a spot, you will return to this site to pay. Fees for 2025 winners are:

Half Canoe/Kayak Rack Spot: $70
Full Canoe/Kayak Rack Spot: $140
Cove Moorings: $50
Outer Moorings: $250
Slips: $750

Stickers will be issued to all lottery winners if they pay by May 4th.  On May 5th, registration re-opens to the general public and any remaining storage positions may be purchased.

All boats stored at the beach must have a current year sticker displayed or they will be removed. They may also be removed if left at the beach after Nov 15th. Any boats impounded by the Harbormaster will cost $50/yr to get released.  We also offer boat rentals, if you would rather rent or if you don't win the lottery.
