Huggins Lake is a small lake north-northeast of in Delaware County, New York. It drains south via Huggins Hollow which flows into Beaver Kill. The lake was the site of Indian Ridge, a Boy Scout summer camp managed remotely by Camden County Council, New Jersey, and in operation between 1962 and 1985. Indian Ridge was considered a primitive camp, with no cabins or dining hall. The scouts and staff slept in wall tents: the only structure was a walk-in refrigerator, the concrete pad of which is still visible east of the outlet end of the lake.
