Great Sacandaga Lake
Gas, food you can dock at, public launches, marinas, and the no-wake marks that actually matter on this 29-mile reservoir. Confirm fuel and hours before you run empty — pumps come and go with the season.

How to use this map
29 marks on the boater map. Hover a pin.
Marine fuel, not the station on the highway. Call the dock before you count on a pump — some years a marina has gas, some years it doesn’t. If you sell fuel on the water, list it.

The more dressed-up Lanzi kitchen: Italian family recipes, steaks, seafood, and a lake view. Courtesy docks. A reservation place on holiday weekends, not a grab-a-table-in-flip-flo…

Seasonal. Do not assume a September weeknight is open.
Seasonal lakeside bar, restaurant, and marina at the south end. People arrive by car, motorcycle, and boat. When it’s open, it’s open; when the season ends, the lights are out.
Hard ramps with trailer parking. Free, busy on July weekends, and not a substitute for knowing the water.
Boats & marinas · Northville
Open for the boating season; winter ice access is a different, unofficial story — check conditions.

Boats & marinas · Broadalbin

Different waterbody than Great Sacandaga. Check which one you actually meant.
Ramp on Stewart’s Pond, the reservoir immediately downstream of the Conklingville Dam — not the main lake. People mix them up. Pike and smallmouth in moving water near the inflow.

Great Sacandaga is a reservoir. Levels move, stumps come and go, and the shoreline in October is not the shoreline in July. NYS rule: no vessel over 5 mph within 100 feet of shore. Stay out of marked swim areas. PWC may not run between sunset and sunrise.
💡 Local tip
No-wake · Northville
Extra no-wake at the Northville Bridge. 5 mph within 100 feet of any shore on this lake.
No-wake · Batchellerville
Extra no-wake at the Batchellerville Bridge. Watch the wind on the open water just beyond.
Stay out of the swim area · Mayfield
Marked swim area off Burr Road. Stay out of the buoys. Beach itself is closed Monday and Tuesday even in July.
Stay out of the swim area · Northampton
DEC campground beach. Boats stay outside the marked swim area. Busy on holiday weekends.
Image suggestion — A bridge or channel marker buoy on the lake with a no-wake sign visible, calm water around it.
Full rules and who to call: Lake safety. We don’t invent buoys — if a mark is missing, tell us.
This map only works if it stays accurate — gas that ran out, a marina that closed, a launch that’s now private. Tell us what’s changed.
