Inlet sits just off NY-3 between Saranac Lake village and Tupper Lake — a mid-sized pond tucked between the highway and the railroad corridor that runs parallel to it. At 94 acres it's large enough to hold water through summer but small enough that most paddlers pass it by for the bigger Saranac chain to the south or Upper Saranac to the west. The pond drains north into the Saranac River via a short outlet stream, putting it in the same watershed as the Lower Saranac Lake system despite sitting several miles downstream. No fish species on record, which usually means either limited access or limited interest — check local regs and DEC updates before dropping a line.
