Have dog, boat, kid, and sometimes car, will travel

I live in Brooklyn and I'm looking for places within, say, a two hour drive that I can go with two adults, a three year old kid, and a 25 pound puppy to ideally hike, swim (or at least splash in some water) and paddle around a little in our inflatable kayak. It's surprisingly hard to find places around the city that allow all three of those things -- swimming, dogs, and kayaks!

Beach, ponds, lakes, or rivers are all good. Public parks or other. We do some camping overnights, but day use places are preferred.

It doesn't have to be ENTIRELY sanctioned -- we were at Plumb Beach yesterday which technically doesn't allow dogs but there were several other dogs on the beach with us -- but I don't want to do anything too against the rules or stress out our already stressed public park system. Doesn't need to be fancy or have lots of other amenities!

Even more leads on places that will allow dogs (on leash) at swimming areas or at boat launches would be helpful. And, I know, I know, time to pay the puppy tax!
