Goose Pond, Chatham MAGoose Pond is a bit of a local's secret swimming find, with it's location in the middle of Chatham's forested center. Goose Pond is a lovely, unspoiled fresh water kettlehole pond ((a shallow body of water formed by retreating glaciers); and at 38 acres, Goose Pond is the largest of Chatham's freshwater ponds great for swimming, canoeing, and kayaking. And, perfect for a family beach day destination.
It has a sandy bottom with an average depth of 24 feet and a maximum depth of 52 feet. Transparency is exceptional, extending to 23 feet, and aquatic vegetation is scant. The 0.87 miles of shoreline is wooded and sparsely developed with a hiking trail that rings that perimeter of the pond which permits you to view its scenic splendor Goose Pond is also one of Chatham's 5 or so freshwater fishing spots. You'll need a license from the Permit Office at 283 George Ryder Road.
