Cook Pond Description

Cook Pond is a 154 acre warmwater pond, which has an average depth of 10 feet and a maximum depth of 18 feet. This pond is also known as Laurel Lake. The fertile water has a transparency of 6.5 feet or less, and the bottom is composed of rubble, rock and muck. The 2.6 miles of shoreline are only lightly developed despite the high population density of the surrounding area. Emergent vegetation is common and submergent vegetation is scant. A heavy algae bloom often occurs during the summer months. Boaters should beware of the numerous rocks that occur in this pond, especially in the northern end.
