Lake Sabbatia or Scaddings Pond is a 248-acre great Pond located off Bay Street north of Taunton center. The average depth of Lake Sabbatia is 10 feet with a maximum of 35 feet and the water is tea-colored and transparent to roughly 4 feet. The bottom is predominantly mud and aquatic vegetation can be found along the shoreline and in all of the coves, particularly within the northern end which is uniformly shallow. The shores of Lake Sabbatia are developed with year-round residences and contribute to heavy use of the lake during the summer months. Lake Sabbatia is subject to an annual drawdown thus use caution when navigating during fall and winter as the depth varies seasonally.

The City of Taunton manages a concrete boat ramp and adjacent parking area suitable for 17 trailers off of Bay Street on the lake’s western shore. The shoreline may be accessed from the boat ramp, south along Bay Street through undeveloped land.
