Crow Hills Pond in Leominster State Forest is popular for swimming, fishing, and boating, and has a beach area with picnic facilities. Crow Hill Pond was the work site of the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) in the 1930s. The CCC built roads, trails, bridges, and dams in the forest, improving its recreational and environmental value.

Leominster State Forest covers 4,246 acres in the towns of Leominster, Fitchburg, Princeton, Sterling, and Westminster. The forest offers trails for hiking, mountain biking, and cross-country skiing, as well as rock climbing and fishing opportunities. One of the main attractions is the Midstate Trail, a 95-mile long-distance trail that passes through the forest. Another is Crow Hill Pond, a scenic spot for swimming and picnicking. Leominster State Forest is easily accessible from MA-2 (exit 28) and is open year-round for visitors to enjoy the natural beauty and recreation options.
