Imagine yourself lazily rowing across Central Park's 22-acre Lake, the second largest water body in the Park.
Row boating is available April through October, weather permitting. Row boats can be rented at the Loeb Boathouse daily, 10am to 5:30pm (last rental). The boats must be returned by 6:30pm. Rentals cost $12 for the first hour and $3 each additional 15 minutes. A $30 cash deposit required. Up to four people permitted per boat. No reservations required.
Belvedere Castle
Calvert Vaux created the miniature castle in 1869 as one of its many whimsical structures intended as a lookout to the reservoir to the north (now the Great Lawn) and the Ramble to the south.
