Lake Innisfree (also known as Lake Isle or Interlaken, and originally as Reservoir No. 1)[1] is a man-made lake and former reservoir[2] in the city of New Rochelle and the town of Eastchester, in Westchester County, New York.[1] Its eastern end abuts the Hutchinson River Parkway. The lake takes its name from the poem Lake Isle of Innisfree by W. B. Yeats.[2]
