Van Cortlandt Lake Van Cortlandt Lake, which is man-made, is the largest freshwater lake in the Bronx. This beautiful feature was formed in the 1690s when Jacobus Van Cortlandt dammed Tibbetts Brook to power two mills. The lake offers inspiring vistas from the golf clubhouse area where visitors can observe scores of ducks, a few swans, and other waterfowl. The Putnam Trail and portions of the golf course also offer commanding views of the lake.
