An Adirondack town made for outdoor activities and families
On the eastern edge of the Adirondacks, surrounding the city of Glens Falls on three sides and stretching north to Lake George, Queensbury has a geography made for outdoor adventure. From hiking, swimming and fishing to skiing and snowshoeing, it’s a haven for homebuyers looking to escape city life. “We’re only three hours from New York City and Boston,” says Realtor Angela Cugini-Girard with EXP Realty. A Boston transplant over 30 years ago, Cugini-Girard knows how much more affordable Queensbury can be. Once a vacation spot filed with second homes, Queensbury saw an influx of primary homebuyers during the pandemic, when working remotely became more widely accepted. “Today, 40% are vacation homebuyers, and 60% are year-round,” she says. Queensbury is also where kids can ride their bikes on the street and walk to a neighbor’s house. “There’s a hometown community here that people love,” says Barbara Kenison, an associate broker with Coldwell Banker Prime Properties who has lived in the area for 40 years. “It’s a great place to raise children.”
Queensbury residents go to Glen Lake for outdoor fun during the season.

Bikers, boaters, golfers and thrill-seekers welcome
The Gurney Lane Recreation Area, just north of Glens Falls, is one of Queensbury's most popular spots for sports and fun. The park has an outdoor swimming pool, and its newly expanded mountain bike park features over 13 miles of trails. Ridge/Jenkinsville Park to the east contains a playground, a basketball court, tennis courts that double as pickleball courts, a softball complex and soccer fields. Between the parks, Glen Lake allows canoeing, kayaking and fishing, and on Route 9 nearby, Six Flags Great Escape and Hurricane Harbor offer family-favorite rides, rollercoasters and a waterpark. A few miles north, Lake George Expedition Park is another amusement park, where kids can meet dinosaurs, explore a magical forest and soar on carnival rides. For boaters, the Harris Bay Yacht Club and Castaway Marina are only two of several facilities along Lake George on the northern edge of Queensbury. Also close to Lake George, Top of the World Golf Resort offers an 18-hole course, a fine-dining restaurant and views of the lake. To the south, the Hiland Park Country Club is a public course with mountain vistas. Hudson Pointe Nature Preserve on the southwestern side of Queensbury has walking, hiking and mountain bike trails also used for cross-country skiing and snowshoeing in the winter. Nearby West Mountain also offers year-round activities, such as ziplining and downhill skiing.

A range of price points and properties in Queensbury
Homes in Queensbury represent many architectural styles, including historic farmhouses, suburban ranch-style homes, rustic log cabins, stately colonials and multimillion-dollar lakefront properties. “You can get into a house for $200,000 to $1 million; there’s such a range of price points,” Gugini-Girard says. Traditional ranch-style houses and raised-ranch homes often have their original hardwood floors and sell for $200,000 to $400,000. Contemporary ranches built after 1990 and colonial-style homes with larger floor plans are priced higher, between $400,000 and $675,000. Homes with plenty of acreage or custom houses on Lake George and Glen Lake start at around $700,000 and can list as high as $3 million. The area also has its share of distinctive residences, such as historic farmhouses, barns ready to be converted into living spaces, log-cabin homes and an 1867 church transformed into a residence — truly a one-of-a-kind home. Queensbury, Glens Falls and Lake George are home to over a dozen active churches and three synagogues.
Queensbury is home to many businesses in a variety of industries.

Mountain eateries and the Outlets at Lake George
On the east side of Lake George, Cleverdale Country Store offers fresh produce, meats and cheeses. There’s a restaurant inside, and on the side porch, local musicians play in the summer. At Bistro LeRoux south of the lake, diners can expect French-inspired, seasonal fare in an upscale, rustic setting. The Log Jam Restaurant on Route 9 is housed in an authentic Adirondack log cabin with a pot-bellied stove, wood-plank floors and three massive stone fireplaces. Also on Route 9, the Outlets at Lake George features a dozen name-brand factory outlet stores specializing in clothing, shoes, sporting goods and more. Most major grocery chains like Hannaford, Walmart and Price Chopper are in Glens Falls or Lake George.
Cleverdale Country Store is located at 2660 Ridge Rd, Cleverdale, NY near Queensbury.

Festivals for motorcyclists, foodies and art lovers
Americade is Lake George’s annual motorcycle rally in late May/early June. The weeklong festival draws over 50,000 riders and passengers. Americade events include parades, performances by world-champion motorcyclists, tours through the Adirondacks and charity events. Nearby, the Glens Falls Farmers Market happens every Saturday morning from May to October. It’s housed in a parking pavilion at the corner of Elm and South streets and features fresh produce, locally made products, live music and cooking demos. Also in Glens Falls, the Lower Adirondack Regional Arts Council (or LARAC), sponsors several arts events throughout the year, such as the June Arts Festival in City Park, where visitors can purchase jewelry, fine art and textiles. The LARAC Locals Under 40 Arts Festival is held in August, and the Winter Arts Festival at the Queensbury Hotel in early December features local and regional artists.
Quality public schools and SUNY Adirondack in Queensbury
Most schools that serve Queensbury belong to the Queensbury Union Free School District, which received a B-plus from Niche.

Barton Intermediate, another B-plus school.

Busing and biking between Glens Falls and Lake George
Downtown Glens Falls is the hub for Capital District Transportation Authority buses, which branch out to Queensbury destinations, such as the SUNY Adirondack campus off Bay Road or Six Flags Great Escape and The Outlets at Lake George off Route 9. A summer trolley runs along Route 9, too, carrying passengers from Glens Falls to Lake George. Bicyclists can cover the same ground by using the Warren County Bikeway, nearly 10 miles of paved multiuse trail for bicycling, walking and running. The Glens Falls Hospital downtown is a community hospital affiliated with Albany Med, serving patients in Queensbury and smaller, geographically remote communities. The Floyd Bennett Memorial Airport is nearby, too. It provides access for businesses and recreational flyers in the southern Adirondack Mountain region. Interstate 87 connects Queensbury to Saratoga Springs (20 miles away), Albany (60 miles away) and New York City (200 miles away).
Queensbury residents have access to the CDTA buses to get them around town.

Located just east of the Adirondacks, Glens Falls North is an outdoorsmen’s paradise. The peak of West Mountain and the sandy beaches of Lake George are no more than 15 miles away, and miles of cross-country skiing trails weave through the community’s evergreen forests. “It’s outside the hustle and bustle of Lake George Village, but there’s lots of bars and restaurants,” says Daniel Davies, a broker with Davies-Davies & Associates Real Estate who has been selling homes in the area for over 35 years. The community sits just above the city of Glens Falls in Queensberry. While Glens Falls North is technically outside of the Adirondacks, it embraces the region's spirit with abundant green spaces that provide shade in the summer and sit underneath a layer of sparkling snow in the winter.
Crandall Park is about 2 miles south of Glens Falls North. The green space features four lighted pickleball courts, a splash pad and a playground shaded by a canopy of evergreens. Across the street is the Glens Falls Recreation Ice Center and the Glens Falls Family YMCA, where membership includes access to unlimited fitness classes and free childcare for up to three hours a day. A forest of evergreens sits behind the YMCA, and there’s an access point to the Cole’s Woods trails between the trees. Cole’s Woods boasts the first lighted cross-country ski trails in the country, and the trail system attracts outdoor exercisers year-round. Anglers can cast their lines at Hovey Pond Park, where the Warren County Fish Hatchery stocks the water with bass and trout. Six Flags Great Escape is a bit further north along State Route 9 and is open seasonally from May to October. Residents can also join the Glens Falls Country Club, where the scenic 18-hole course offers views of Round Pond.
Perhaps the biggest outdoor attraction in Queensbury is West Mountain, less than a 10-mile drive south of Glens Falls North. The mountain towers over Glens Falls and offers everything from night skiing and snow tubing in the winter to high ropes tours and mountaintop yoga in the summer. The resort also hosts various events, including an annual Fall Festival. The festivities celebrate the start of autumn with hay wagon rides, pumpkin painting and scenic chairlift rides that take passengers high above a canopy of vibrant reds, oranges and yellows.
For waterfront recreation, the beaches of Lake George are about a 12-mile drive north via I-87. “The Sagamore Resort is located there, which is absolutely incredible,” Davies says. The resort sits on Lake George’s Green Island and features an 18-hole golf course, spa and plenty of opportunities for outdoor adventure. Guests can fish off the hotel’s private dock, water ski on the lake or set off on guided horseback rides through wooded trails.
In addition to its sports courts, Crandall Park is a destination for community events. Its bandshell hosts an annual summer concert series, and the Adirondack Balloon Festival holds its opening ceremonies in the park each September. The event is the third-largest balloon festival in the country and draws over 100,000 people to Glens Falls each year. Hundreds of hot-air balloons float high above the Adirondack Mountains, launching from Crandall Park and the Floyd Bennett Memorial Airport. Food trucks, live musical performances and private balloon rides round out the festivities.
Homebuyers will find a variety of housing options in Glens Falls North. Residential streets branch off New York State Route 254, and most do not have sidewalks. Colonial Revivals, Cape Cods and sprawling ranch-style homes sit on manicured lawns that average just under half an acre. Many properties embrace the region’s natural beauty and feature backyard decks or in-ground pools. While most homes were built during the second half of the 20th century, there is some new construction mixed into Glens Falls North. Prices for single-family homes range from around $265,000 for a smaller ranch-style home to $600,000 for a larger Colonial Revival. Townhouse communities feature two-or-three-bedroom units, and townhouses tend to sell for about $230,000 to $300,000.
Students attend the Queensberry Union Free School District, which Niche ranks as the best school district in Warren County. Queensberry Elementary School serves prekindergarten through third grade, while William H. Barton Intermediate School serves fourth and fifth grade. Older kids can attend Queensberry Middle School, and all three schools earn a B-plus from Niche. At the B-rated Queensberry High School, teens can enroll in the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme and take advanced courses designed to prepare them for college. The high school also partners with SUNY Adirondack to offer Early College Career Academy programs in four fields: Electrical Technology/Advanced Manufacturing, IT Networking & Cybersecurity, New Media Arts and Business and Entrepreneurship. The SUNY Adirondack campus is just northeast of Glens Falls North in Queensberry.
With U.S. Route 9 running through Glens Falls North, residents have access to a variety of restaurants and shopping centers. Local favorites include Northway Brewing Co., which features an industrial taproom and an outdoor seating area lit by string lights. Spargel on 9 is a go-to for authentic German Food, while The Silo Restaurant and Country Store serves up comfort foods in a rustic barn. Big-box retailers along the thoroughfare include Walmart, Home Depot and Market 32. Just off Route 9 is the Aviation Mall, which features Target and Regal Cinemas. Residents can also catch a movie at the Glen Drive-In Theater, which has been showing films since 1958. More restaurants, shops and entertainment are less than a 5-mile drive south of Glens Falls North in downtown Glens Falls.
Since Glens Falls North lacks sidewalks, residents are largely car-dependent. The community offers proximity to major thoroughfares like Interstate 87, locally known as the Adirondack Northway. The thoroughfare provides access to the region’s abundant outdoor amenities and leads about 50 miles south to the Albany International Airport. CDTA provides local bus service, and Route 411 connects residents to downtown Glens Falls – less than a 10-mile drive south. From June to Labor Day, the Greater Glens Falls Transit Summer Trolley travels from Glens Falls North to the sandy beaches of Lake George.
