boating lake

Recreational rowing pond

A boating lake is a small body of water, typically in a park or resort, designed for recreational rowing or pedal boats.

Unlike natural lakes used for serious boating, a boating lake is usually shallow and calm, meant for leisurely outings: We rented a rowboat at the boating lake.

The term is more common in British English.
