About Big Moose Lake

Surrounded by Forest

Big Moose Lake is located in the Western part of the Adirondack region near the Pigeon Lake Wilderness. This 1,242-acre lake could be out of a novel with lush forests lining the shores and sprawling mountain ranges in the background. In the fall, the shore is painted with color as the leaves begin to turn.

Big Moose Lake is around an hour from Watertown, New York, which sits on the shore of Lake Ontario. If you are looking for a more extended road trip, New York City is just over five hours from Big Moose Lake. You can even be in Montreal, Canada, in around four hours. Adventure is never far when you are living on Big Moose Lake.

Enjoy Nature

Big Moose Lake offers recreational activities like water-skiing, fishing, camping, and hiking. The water of Big Moose Lake is thriving with popular sports fish, including lake trout, brown trout, perch, and splake.

Big Moose Lake is surrounded by forest, but the Pigeon Lake Wilderness sits closest to the lake on its eastern side. Don’t let the name fool you; this area is no small bird.

Encompassing 50,100 acres as a part of the Adirondack Forest Preserve, this area consists of 71 interior lakes and ponds. Visitors can hike, bike, camp, paddle, fish, hunt/trap, ski, bird-watch, and ride horses. There are plenty of different trails to choose from that are accessible to people of all skill levels.

Ha-De-Ron-Dah Wilderness, Fulton Chain, and Pigeon Lake Wilderness are just a few of the surrounding forests that you can easily explore while living on Big Moose Lake.
