Every named reservoir in the Adirondack Park — flood-control basins, drinking-water sources, and the impoundments anchoring the southern watersheds.
Maylender Pond is a small 9-acre reservoir in the Great Sacandaga Lake region — part of the network of impoundments and side waters that define this corner of the southern Adirondacks. The pond sits away from the main lake basin, tucked into a quieter drainage where the crowds thin out and the fishing pressure drops. No formal species surveys on record, which typically means it's either managed for basic warmwater species or it's simply off the stocking rotation. Worth a look if you're exploring the backroads around the lake and want water that doesn't show up on the rental-cabin circuit.
