Where Friends<br />

& Waters Meet<br />

Come to Lake Luzerne,<br />

just eleven miles south of Lake<br />

George Village. Here, the Hudson<br />

River squeezes into a narrow<br />

gorge, tumbling over the<br />

dramatic Rockwell Falls. Water<br />

from the Great Sacandaga<br />

Reservoir joins the river in a flurry of white water. Further downstream,<br />

the river widens into “The Bay,” a stretch of water broad<br />

enough for water skiing. For those who seek quiet water, a chain<br />

of four beautiful lakes offer fishing, camping and boating with<br />

two public swimming beaches on Lake Luzerne itself.<br />

Lake Luzerne has catered to visitors since President Grant<br />

came to the area for rest and recreation after the Civil War. The<br />

grand old hotels of that day have given way to modern inns and<br />

restaurants while new tennis and basketball courts, miniature golf<br />

and four local history museums, along with summer concerts and<br />

craft shows, offer a variety of family fun.<br />

Nearby, Lake Luzerne Music camp attracts world-class musicians.<br />

In winter, snowmobilers can ride over 200 miles of forest<br />

trails. Signs for the “Dude Ranch Trail” hearken back to the days<br />

after World War II, when the old logging camps found new life as<br />

Dude Ranches. The Rodeo is still going strong after more than 50<br />

years and several stables along Route 9N still offer horseback riding.<br />

Just north of the Hope Bridge across the Hudson to Hadley is<br />

the most narrow point of the entire Hudson River, Rockwell Falls<br />

south of the bridge the Sacandaga and the Hudson River meet<br />

(confluence) allowing flat water to Corinth. Seasonal railway service<br />

along the First Wilderness Heritage Corridor continues May<br />

to October from the Hadley/Lake Luzerne station stop on Rockwell<br />

Street.<br />
