Mill and Murray Ponds are quiet, sheltered and calm waters that are great for paddling, fishing, and birding. 

How to get there

From the intersection of County Routes 6 and 7 in Mineville, follow County Route 7 toward Elizabethtown. Continue for approximately 3 miles to a faint dirt access road on the right. Take this very rough road 100 feet to a small parking area.

 

Canoe, kayak or SUP can easily launch from shore. A small boat with a trolling motor no more than 5hp is also allowable on these ponds. 

 

Murray Pond is the small pond to the east of Mill Pond, and can be accessed from Mill Pond.

 

By the numbers

  • an easy carry of approximately 200 feet (unmarked, but a well-used herd path and clearly visible with good footing)
  • calm, flat water

Paddling

Canoe, kayak or SUP on calm, well sheltered waters with no motorboats.

Fishing

Northern Pike in this pond are quite small but still fun to catch, best caught from a boat in the center of pond. You will find several nice spots for shoreline fishing on Mill Pond's south shore. 

Mill and Murray Ponds support northern pike, perch, panfish, and bullhead.

Birding

Many migratory and boreal species are found in this area.
