Chestnut Hillock Reservoir

The Chestnut Hillock reservoir is a lake in the Commonwealth in 2287.
==Background==
On the south shore of the lake is a cabin; it was once the home of Edwin and Annika, in which the two met after he stumbled upon her, and she leveled her shotgun at his head. Instead of pulling the trigger, they fell in love,Edwin's journal, 9/12/2287 spending their lazy nights stargazing from the porch.Edwin's journal, 9/15/2287
After nearly ten years passed, the cabin became a raider camp before later being abandoned. Edwin vagabonded, only returning three years after Annika passed in 2284, seeking solace in the place where they met and began their life together. He and his brahmin Bess arrived at sundown on September 7, 2287, where they settled in and enjoyed their time off the road.Edwin's journal, 9/7/2287
Since he was last there, the cabin's north half had sunken closer into the shore, and he planned to return in the spring to shore up the foundation. In the meantime, it took about a week to clean the raider detritus out of the cabin; to compensate for the local fauna, he built an electric zapper out of parts from an old generator, and attached it to the porch roof.Edwin's journal, 9/14/2287
While out fishing on September 17, a large swarm of insects attacked Edwin; and while he got a few good shots at them, the scuffle upset the boat and it flipped over. With the danger more apparent and Bess now spooked, he decided to leave in the morning should the bugs not let up.Edwin's journal, 9/17/2287
The following morning, Edwin realized that he lost Annika's locket, the only thing he had to remember her by. Nearly hysterical, he swam out into the middle of the lake to find it,Edwin's journal, 9/17/2287 where he then drowned, clutching the last physical reminder of his deceased love. Edwin's skeleton lies at the bottom of the lake, beneath the overturned rowboat, and Bess' corpse, still at the cabin, is in the process of being consumed by insects.
==Layout==
A once picturesque lake on the edge of the Fens, this swampy landscape is now infested with bloodbugs, bloatflies and stingwings. A small dilapidated cabin rests on the shoreline, containing Edwin's terminal in one corner, and a bed and safe (Master locked) tucked into another.
There are multiple docks around the lake, and a capsized boat in the middle of the water. Multiple skeletons can be found on the north side: one in a patio chair has a cooler on the ground near it (there is also a hidden toolbox in the water under this skeleton), another is in a wheelchair with Buffout on the ground, and a third is in a bathtub with a Nuka-Cola Quantum.
Ashes the cat can also be found by the Nuka-Cola Quantum, and interacting with him starts the quest Here Kitty, Kitty, if it has not already been started by speaking to Erin Combes.
==Notable loot==
* Edwin's journal, a holotape that can be found on a terminal inside of Edwin's cabin.
* One Nuka-Cola Quantum held by a skeleton located in a bathtub on the east shore by a building with a fire escape.
* Edwin's key is located in the middle of the lake, in a cooler, under the capsized boat. The key will unlock the safe in the decrepit cabin.
* Annika's locket can be found in the right hand of Edwin's skeletal remains underwater.
* Two overdue books can be found in a nearby subway station northeast of the lake, including a Vault-Tec lunchbox.
