Million Dollar Beach is also a hub for summer boaters, featuring a public boat launch, boat inspection station, and boat wash station—all free of charge. Given that boat inspections are mandatory for trailered boats entering Lake George, visitors are encouraged to use these facilities.

Adding to its appeal is its proximity to Lake George Village. After soaking up the sun, take a leisurely stroll to enjoy a meal at one of the village's numerous restaurants or explore the local shops.
