2013 Map of Lake George

About this map

Lake George dominates the landscape as it appeared in the early 21st century, with its intricate shoreline of points and islands defining the local geography. The village of Lake George serves as a central hub, flanked by the steep elevations of Prospect Mountain and Rattlesnake Cobble to the west and the massive profile of French Mountain to the east. This survey captures the high-density residential and resort development along the southern basin, stretching from Crosbyside around to the seasonal communities of Cleverdale and Rockhurst on the eastern shore. Genealogists and local historians can locate several burial grounds, including the Caldwell Cem, Evergreen Cem, and the more remote Scotch Cem near Oneida Corners. The map also illustrates the transition from the developed village center to the protected wilds of the Adirondack Park Preserve, showing the network of local roads such as Diamond Point Rd and Truesdale Hill Rd that navigate the varied terrain.
