About
Stoughton Pond Recreation Area is a day-use facility managed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers as part of the North Springfield Lake flood control project. Located off VT Route 106 on Stoughton Pond Road in Perkinsville, the area sits among rolling hills on the North Branch of the Black River. The 44-acre pond is annually stocked with rainbow trout by the Vermont Department of Fish and Wildlife and also offers excellent bass fishing. Facilities include a swimming beach with grassy sunbathing areas, a change house, flush toilets, and drinking water. Ten family picnic sites are available first-come, first-served, and a reservable group picnic shelter accommodates up to 60 people. A boat ramp provides access for small boats, canoes, and kayaks. An interpretive trail along the pond edge offers views of wetlands and diverse natural habitats. This is strictly a day-use area. Overnight camping is not permitted. When open, hours are Friday through Monday from 10:30 AM to 8:00 PM, with the facility closed Tuesday through Thursday.
