Part of the 152-acre Mares Pond & Spectacle Pond Reservation, acquired 1986-2002 to protect Falmouth's Mares Pond municipal well. A loop trail through second-growth oak and pine visits all three kettle ponds: Spectacle, Mares, and Deer Pond. Swimming, boating, and fishing are not permitted because the ponds are the town's public water supply.
