Cook's Pond is a two-acre reservoir in the Great Sacandaga Lake basin — small enough that it likely serves a private or institutional purpose rather than public recreation, and without the fish survey data that would indicate DEC management. The Great Sacandaga corridor runs heavy with reservoirs and flowages dating to the 1930s dam projects, and ponds this size often sit on private land or function as water supply for seasonal camps. No public access information on file — if you're planning a visit, confirm ownership and permission before approaching the shoreline.
