Natural beauty; abundant game; and a sandy lakeside location: these are the reasons people have come to Sandy Pond for hundreds of years. Sandy Ponds fascinating history includes Native Americans; early entrepreneurs; bootleggers; and even a vice president of the United States. Formed by retreating glaciers that carved the landscape; Sandy Pond is located on the eastern shore of Lake Ontario. More a lake than a pond; it is protected from Lake Ontarios wind and waves by a barrier dune system and a sandy beach; with an outlet to that Great Lake. This has made Sandy Pond a safe harbor for vessels during dangerous weather. As far back as 1675; when he marched against the Iroquois; Samuel de Champlain wrote of traveling "over a sandy plain" where he found "a very pleasing and fine country; a number of ponds and prairies; where there was an infinite quantity of game; a great many vines and fine trees." Sandy Ponds natural and man-made treasures continue to make it a year-round destination for nature enthusiasts.
