The
Fulton Chain of Lakes
consists of lakes which are linked from
Old Forge to Blue Mountain
Lake. The lakes are regulated by a dam in Old Forge (by the
covered bridge) which was originally constructed by trappers in the late
1798 to finding and shipping beaver skins. For years
since then, canoeists have enjoyed paddling these lakes. Garbarino's
Four Seasons Cottages, LLC is located on the north side of Fourth Lake about
5 miles east of Old Forge. The picture was taken looking east
towards Inlet, NY. The inlet to 3rd Lake is at the bottom of the
picture. 7th Lake can be seen in the distance in the top right hand corner of
the photograph. Alger Island is located in the middle of Fuorth Lake. It
is a state park and accessible only by boat. It makes a great
destination for paddling and swimming (.4 miles one way)
