Chambers Lake sits east of Old Forge in the Moose River Plains — a 27-acre pond in the low-relief timber country where the western Adirondacks flatten out into long gravel roads and dispersed campsites. The lake is part of the Old Forge / Inlet system of ponds and wetlands that feed the Moose River, more working forest than High Peaks drama. Access details and fishery records are sparse, but the pond fits the profile of the region: quiet water, soft shoreline, and the kind of solitude that comes from being off the main corridors. If you're looking for a named water to paddle or explore by truck and canoe in the Moose River country, Chambers is on the map.
