PLEASANT LAKE, DEERFIELD, NEW HAMPSHIRE
Pleasant Lake, covering 479 acres, and 65 feet deep is indeed a stunning spring fed lake located in Deerfield, New Hampshire within Rockingham County. The lake’s eastern shore serves as the boundary between Deerfield and Northwood. Pleasant Lake is part of a larger watershed. Water from the lake flows north into Northwood Lake, and then to the Suncook River, a tributary of the Merrimack River. This flow contributes to the ecological health and connectivity of the region’s waterways.
Being classified as an oligotrophic lake means
that Pleasant Lake has low nutrient levels, resulting in high water clarity and a healthy ecosystem. This type of lake is often characterized by cool, well-oxygenated water, making it ideal for a variety of fish species.
