About this Location

Lout Pond is an 18-acre natural kettlehole pond. The 0.7 miles of shoreline have residential development on the northern and southern shorelines and bogs on the western shoreline. The pond was formerly used as a water supply for the town of Plymouth and an old brick pump house still exists on the side of the pond and a water department building is located across the street.

The best location to launch a kayak or canoe is opposite the old water pumping station. There is plenty of parking for at least 10 vehicles. Carry your car top boat across the street and over the guard rail. Follow the short trail down the embankment to the water. Billington Street (sometimes known as South Pond Road) runs along the eastern shore of Lout Pond. Parking is available roadside, but the steep bank precludes the launching of anything but canoes and car-top boats. A local bylaw allows only electric motors on this pond.
