About the still river
The Still River is a 25-mile-long river located in western Massachusetts that flows into the Housatonic River. The river has a rich history, having played a vital role in the industrialization of the region during the 19th century. Today, the Still River is used for recreational purposes such as fishing, canoeing, and kayaking. There are several dams and reservoirs along the river, including the Wachusett Reservoir, which is the largest reservoir in Massachusetts and provides drinking water to millions of people in the Boston area. The river also provides water for agricultural purposes, including irrigation for local farms. Despite its relatively short length, the Still River is an important resource for the people and communities it serves.
