Eagle Lake sits near the eastern edge of the Adirondack Mountains, within the towns of Ticonderoga and Crown Point, in Essex County, New York. Even though only a few miles west of the junction between Lake Champlain and Lake George, Eagle Lake is “up Chilson Hill” from those great bodies of water, and its waters drain into the Hudson River Basin through Paradox and Schroon lakes. Eagle Lake is con

venient to the Adirondack High Peaks Region, the Central Adirondack Region, the Lake George Region, and western Vermont. Among the many historical and cultural destinations within a few miles of Eagle Lake are such diverse attractions as Fort Ticonderoga (fortticonderoga.org) and the Star Trek Original Series Set Tour (startrektour.com)!
