About Sacandaga Lake
Sacandaga Lake sits near Saratoga Springs, New York, covering roughly 1,510 acres with about 11 miles of shoreline. The lake reaches a modeled maximum depth of about 70 feet, a figure derived from bathymetric modeling rather than a single sounding. Its position in Saratoga County places it within reach of the region's horse-racing and spa-town economy, drawing a mix of local families and downstate visitors.
The lake functions as a warm-season fishing and boating destination, with bass and panfish drawing anglers from the surrounding towns. Its moderate size and depth keep it accessible to smaller craft, and its proximity to Saratoga Springs, about a half-hour's drive, makes it a common day-trip stop for people already in the area for the track or the springs. Shoreline development is mostly seasonal camps and year-round homes rather than dense resort building.
- 36 roads engraved around the shore, 5 of them labeled
- 6 depth layers, each step engraved with its depth in feet
- Compass rose, title block with coordinates, max depth and area; keyhole hanger on the back

Sacandaga Lake depth chart, in wood
This is a Sacandaga Lake depth chart you can hang: 6 stacked layers of birch, each one a depth contour — 12 ft, 23 ft, 35 ft, 47 ft, 58 ft and deeper, down to the deepest hole at about 70 ft. The lake covers about 2.5 square miles, and 36 shore roads are engraved around it. The shape of the bottom is the real one from published soundings, so anglers recognise their drop-offs and points.
A Sacandaga Lake map for the wall — or a gift
Most of these go to a cabin wall, a lake house entry, or a home office; a lot are gifts — the family that has been on Sacandaga Lake for three generations, the retirement move, the first boat. The 12-inch is the desk-and-shelf size; the 24- and 30-inch boards read across a room. Add a line under the title and star your place on the shore, and it becomes the map of your Sacandaga Lake.
Sacandaga Lake map — the details
How big is the map?
Four sizes: 12, 17, 24 and 30 inches on the long side, from $149. Every size is cut from the same depth data of Sacandaga Lake; the bigger boards carry more shoreline roads and place names.
Is it made from real depth data?
Yes. Sacandaga Lake is cut layer by layer from published bathymetric soundings — each layer of birch is a depth contour, so the shape of the bottom is the real one, not decorative.
Can I add my own place on it?
Yes. At checkout you can add a line under the title (a family name, a cabin name, a year) and star the spot on the shore that matters to you.
How long does it take?
Made to order in Waterford, Pennsylvania and shipped in 7–10 days; shipping is free in the lower 48.
