Long Pond

Hinckleys Pond is also known as Pleasant Lake and is classified as a Great Pond due to its 172-acre size. It has a well-maintained beach with plenty of activities. The Cape Cod Rail Trail passes nearby, which is a super byway. This is a great place to take a break, especially as nearby you have Pleasant Lake Pizza Shark, a well-known local eatery.
