Lake edges are good but scope out for how heavily the lake is used... water attracts fishermen, kids, birdwatchers, etc.
In CT your last frost date is in late April I believe and you will be safe to plant ~May 1st... USDA zone 5b...
Sprout indoors if possible or build a tiny temporary greenhouse of plastic to protect your seedlings.
