Lilypad Pond is a 31-acre water in the Long Lake township — small enough to be out of the spotlight, large enough to hold a few quiet hours in a canoe or kayak. The name telegraphs the obvious: expect a soft-edged pond with vegetation working its way in from the margins, the kind of place that fishes better early season before the pads thicken. No fish species data on record, which in the Long Lake region often means unstocked and undersampled rather than fishless — worth a cast with a streamer or a popper if you're already here. Access details aren't widely documented, so confirm put-in options locally before making the drive.
