The shoreline of this pond is well developed with seasonal and year round homes, typical of ponds in York County. The pond thermally stratifies during the summer months, but areas below 30 feet deep are deficient in oxygen. Despite this limitation there is suitable water quality to support a coldwater fishery. Horne Pond is managed for cold and warmwater fisheries. Brown and brook trout fisheries are sustained through an annual maintenance stocking program. There is insufficient spawning and nursery habitat to allow either species of trout to become self-sustaining. The presence of competing warmwater fish and somewhat limited water quality compromise trout management efforts. Boat access is available at a privately owned camp ground located off the North Road. Public access accommodations are tentative and could be terminated in the future. There is a need to secure permanent public access provisions to this pond.
The ranking score is used to determine how "popular" a trip or location is. It is calculated based off of a weighted average of the number of reviews and the user ratings. For example, a location with 2 reviews and an average rating of 5 will have a lower "ranking score" than one with 10 reviews and an average rating of 4. This is because even though the first location has a better average rating, it has not been reviewed as much as the second location, so it is not as "popular". In the future we may modify the ranking score to take in additional factors, such as the number of views, comments, and photos.
