Evergreen Lake (Herkimer County, New York)
Evergreen Lake is a small, natural lake located in Herkimer County, New York, within the Adirondack Park. The lake is primarily situated in the Town of Webb, and its watershed contributes to the larger Moose River drainage basin.
The lake's primary characteristic is its setting within a dense evergreen forest, lending the lake its name. While not particularly large, Evergreen Lake offers opportunities for quiet recreation such as canoeing, kayaking, and fishing, although access may be limited depending on private land ownership surrounding the lake.
Specific fish species present in Evergreen Lake may vary, but it is typically stocked with trout or contains native brook trout populations. Regulations regarding fishing are dictated by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC).
Due to its relatively remote location and the prevalence of private land in the area, Evergreen Lake receives less recreational traffic than some of the larger, more accessible lakes within the Adirondack Park.
