Bakers Pond is a classic coastal-plain kettle pond west of Orleans center, its wide sandy shoreline seasonally underwater when the water table runs high. The Town-owned conservation land around it links across Route 6 to Nickerson State Park in Brewster, giving a two-mile-plus loop through woods and past the pond's edge.
