Benedict Pond was once part of the Civilian Conversation Corps (CCC) construction project. This included building an earth dam to create the approximately 14-acre Benedict Pond.

Here you can go swimming, fishing and there is even a ramp for non-motorized boating. Facilities for camping, picnicking and restricted hunting as well as handicapped-accessible beaches and restrooms you will find here, too.
