Moreau Lake State Park Beach

Moreau Lake is a small, forest-ringed lake between Saratoga Springs and Lake George, with a sandy state park beach on its western shore. The swim season runs from Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day, daily from 10 to 6, weather permitting. Expect an $8 vehicle fee in summer, and look at the park's campsites and cabins if you want to stay by the water.
