Small clear spring-fed pool set in mixed northern hardwoods and cedar swamp along the NCMC Natural Area Trail. Photograph crystal water, submerged springs, mossy stones, and mirror reflections; seasonal color in spring melt or autumn. Best at golden hour or overcast for even light; calm mornings reduce ripples. Short, uneven trail with limited parking near the college — bring waterproof shoes. No entry fee; respect fragile vegetation and private campus areas.
