A Summer on Golden Pond

The 1981 film “On Golden Pond” shows us a place of sublime beauty and tranquility.  But where is this – or is it simply another creation of Hollywood magic?  Our film looks at the real Golden Pond and its wildlife–loons, deer, beavers, porcupines, and more–and our story is told through the eyes of an avid hiker and biologist who has been summering here on Squam Lake for the past 35 years.
