Horseneck Beach State Reservation is believed to be an Anglicization of an Algonquin word, “hassanegk,” which roughly translates to a house of stone. However, it’s unknown what exactly this house of stone is referencing. Several beaches along the Horseneck Peninsula in Massachusetts are covered with stones instead of sand, which is one possibility that anthropologists have considered. Between the early 1800 and 1900s, much of the peninsula was privately owned. However, after multiple hurricanes and Atlantic storms slammed into the coast, destroying homes, many homeowners and property owners gave up on rebuilding and sold the properties to Massachusetts. The state officially converted the land to a state reservation in 1956.
