Did You Know?
Brightwaters got its name from Maude Phelps, the daughter of early landowner Charles E. Phelps. When she saw the sparkling ponds, she said this beautiful spot should be called Brightwaters, and the place has gone by that name since 1880. Developer Thomas Benton Ackerson bought the land in 1907, and one of the lakes he rebuilt, Nosrekca Lake, is his name spelled backward. That's from the Village of Brightwaters.
