Gardy's Millpond is a 75-acre reservoir located in a tranquil setting along the Westmoreland and Northumberland county line in Northeast Virginia.

The millpond is relatively shallow with an average depth of about 4 feet. The upstream portion of the impoundment is swampy and the shoreline is largely forested. Scenic and decorated with lily pads, Gardy's Millpond is a quiet spot to fish for black crappie, bluegill and redear sunfish, bream, chain pickerel, largemouth bass and yellow perch.

A new dam was built here soon after Hurricane Bob caused severe damage to the older structure in 1985. The place was subsequently stocked with fish and re-opened to public fishing in 1990.
