Million Dollar Beach Lake George Village

Gorgeous! Beautiful views, quiet and peaceful enviroment.
Safety is a priority - limited size swimming areas, because there are many boats cruising this lake., cool!
This beach is a great sand box for kids!
The food and icecream menu is fine, and the kitchen workers are very nice.
The locker rooms and rest rooms are conveniently located, and well maintained (clean)..

Would not return to Million Dollar Beach . If you are going with kids - it will be a short beach day , as you can not do anything on this beach . No snorkels, no balls of any kind, no frisbees, no floats or any inflatables . So basically nothing for kids to entertain themselves. The beach is roped off and waist high . Life guards are blowing whistles constantly. Not a place for fun . It was a short day. Would not recommend.

I’ve been using the boat launch for about 8 years. A few times a year. The staff have been nothing but pleasant and helpful. At times it can get busy and patience is a virtue, it goes quick and when people need help. “Always throw in a helping hand” Facility is always clean. Never used the beach, but looks nice. “Not sure why all the ridiculous negative posts”

One word…..NO.

This beach is a complete joke. The “swimming” area is roped off in a section that is waste deep. NO swimming available. Then the “lifeguards “ who are really the fun police blow their whistles if anyone runs, splashes, touches the rope, has a float (not allowed), has a ball (not allowed) or steps in the water even to just rinse your feet if you are not in the rope area. I doubt the “lifeguards “ could even save someone from drowning as they are too busy blowing the whistle for someone touching a rope.
Whoever runs this place needs to be fired. AWFUL, AWFUL, AWFUL

Visited million dollar beach and was disappointed. So many bees. Like everywhere. Lifeguards didn’t seem to care and were unwilling to do anything to help. Very small area for swimming and too many restrictions - no rafts or tubes allowed.

LOCALS BE WARE YOU ARE THE PROBLEM AT MILLION DOLLAR BEACH!! This was what we were told today when we attempted to launch our boat at Million Dollar beach, aka Freeforall Frenzy! My husband lightly commented that we already had to use the overflow parking lot across the street for our truck and trailer as the 12 spots for the launch were all full. We should have gotten there sooner was the comment. It was 930am. The entire rest of parking around the launch was empty as normal. It is a 65 degree day and light wind mind you! After her comment on getting there earlier, we wanted to just share that having trucks park far away was really a satfey issue for the launch, and she cut us off - raised her voice and said " how fair is that to have the others without boats park over in overflow?" We said a a lot safer and much more sensible for all. Again she raised her voice and said "they pay taxes too, So why should they have to". People, earlier in the month we were trying to come off the water and the launch was insane, no one monitors it. People were arguing and not being respectful over waiting. My husband had to go to overflow launch to get our truck and while I waited at the dock, with 4 kids in the boat, some stranger attempted to untie my boat and told me I need to move it so his jetski could load, which he already had a clear run, just inexperienced driver to handle the loading! Let me tell you Mama Bear almost clawed him to death putting my kiddos at risk, again we tried to report it and no one wanted to hear it, as us Locals are the problem!
So this woman continued to yell at us and told us that she pays taxes and doesnt even use the lake! But we locals are ruining it for everyone because all we said was, "Why do we have to use the overflow area when there is ample parking next to the launch! If you have never been to the launch duirng a busy day and seen trucks trailers and chaos, get your self a chair popcorn and cooler and watch. I am shocked no one has not gotten seriously injured at this poor engineering setup of a huge lot. 12 spots for a huge launch, joke! Yes it is cheap parking, but anyone in Lake George trying to save our lake and all its beauty need to fire people like this lady. Is it not her job to record incidents of dangerous situations? Nope she berated us, Called us a problem and said we were creating the trouble for others. Next time I'm on vacation in another state I am going to exercise my entitlement privileges see how far that gets me.
People that are at this beach are tourists if you are beaching mainly, some locals go... But you know not to if you are a local. It is basically popular for the launch. But only if you are not a local. So thanks for ruining our day ! 😀 Oh and we ended up leaving because the launch was chaos due to no workers directing traffic and winds were very strong and extreme chop.
Next time I go though, I am going to bring her a $5 to help her with her agony over paying taxes like us locals. ha.
