Arbuckle Pond.

Arbuckle Pond is a 41-acre water in the Tupper Lake region — one of the smaller, lesser-documented ponds in a watershed thick with them. No official fish stocking records and no marked lean-tos or maintained access trails in the DEC catalog, which means it likely sees pressure only from locals who know the old logging roads or from paddlers threading through the larger lake systems nearby. In a region defined by bigger destinations — Tupper Lake proper, the Bog River flow, Raquette River access — Arbuckle sits in that middle category: not remote enough to be truly wild, not developed enough to show up on the summer lake-house circuit. Worth checking local outfitters or the town clerk's office in Tupper Lake if you're hunting quiet water off the standard routes.
