A crystal clear small green lake that is a refreshing stop after Bird Knob. The pond is fed by a small spring that begins a few meters up, which makes it a clean natural pool to go in for a swim. The water can be a bit warm in summer days, which makes it a very unique lake in the area. There is campsites available close to the pool.
