Bonner Lake is a 52-acre water tucked into the Old Forge area — mid-sized by the region's standards, quiet enough to register as off-the-grid even in a town built around motorized lake traffic. No public fish stocking records on file, which usually means either private shoreline or light angling pressure; either way, it's not the lake you hear about at the tackle shop. The Old Forge lakes trend toward development and easy access — Bonner skews the other direction, holding its own pocket of stillwater without much fanfare. Worth a map check if you're looking for something past the First through Eighth Lake corridor.
