The lake is inside a gated community which contains approximately 1,700 property lots that are privately owned. There are 3 beaches: Main Beach, West Beach, and South Beach. There are volleyball courts on the Main Beach with tennis courts nearby. The Main Beach also hosts a large pavilion and clubhouse that can be rented out, along with 3 smaller pavilions on the beach. The Main Beach has a large play area with swings and a jungle-gym. There is a designated swimming area along the shoreline of the beach. The Main Beach also holds the private ski club dock that is used by the Lake Mohawk Water Ski Club. Near the main gate entrance is the golf course which is a 9 hole, par 3 course.

Outside of the Main Gate, but still part of lake property, is a recreational park that contains a baseball field, basketball court, shuffleboard courts, and biking trail. In addition to the Main Gate, there are also 2 other gates: Keno Road Gate and Lace Road Gate, that are only accessible with a key card. A guard house allows visitors in, thus contractors and shipping trucks may enter through the Main Gate only. Most children and teenagers go to Brown Local School District that contains one high school, one middle school and one elementary school.
