Little Otter Pond is a nine-acre pocket water in the Raquette Lake township — small enough that it doesn't show up on most recreational lake surveys and isolated enough that access details are scarce in the public record. The name suggests proximity to the Otter Brook drainage system that feeds into Raquette Lake proper, but without maintained trail or boat access documented, this one likely stays quiet by default. No fish species data on file with DEC, which usually means either it's been unstocked long enough that records lapsed or it's shallow enough that winterkill keeps populations inconsistent. Worth asking locals in Raquette Lake village if you're hunting for a bushwhack objective.
