The cave was located in the depths of the Misty Mountains near Goblin-town. It was close to the Great Goblin's cavern by following an estimated thirty miles of long, dark, and narrow tunnel. The cave housed a small subterranean lake of ice cold water in which sat a tiny island which supplied Gollum with a small amount of protection from the nearby Goblin Camp. This lake harboured a species of blind fish, Gollum's main food source throughout the years he spent there.

  • A dark and smelly hole, full of the bits and ends of worms, and also full of the bones of blind fish and Gollum's goblin victims. Not a warm and snug hole as was proper for a Hobbit, oh no. The lake was the dead end of a mine tunneled by Goblins in ages past. Gollum had found the place as a bit of solace from the burning and dreadful (to him) eye of the yellow sun in the fields of the heavens. Cool and quiet and very very dark.

  • A dark and smelly hole, full of the bits and ends of worms, and also full of the bones of blind fish and Gollum's goblin victims. Not a warm and snug hole as was proper for a Hobbit, oh no. The lake was the dead end of a mine tunneled by Goblins in ages past. Gollum had found the place as a bit of solace from the burning and dreadful (to him) eye of the yellow sun in the fields of the heavens. Cool and quiet and very very dark. Gollum lived on an island out in the middle of this two acres wide lake near the roots of the mountains. There secreted away, if not directly on Gollum's person, was hidden: the One Ring. One of the most coveted items it all of Middle Earth. Not always able to bear or touch it and never able to part from it Gollum had chewed on the gristle of his past deeds and old bones in the dark for hundreds and hundreds of years. The ring did not grant more life, simply immortality. Thus his life came to be as "too little butter spread over too much bread" as it were. Every now and again the Great goblin of Goblin Town got an urge for fresh fish and sent some hapless minion to the lake. Sometimes they returned with catch in hand, other times the hunter became the prey.
