According to the Lake George Guide: "Heavily steeped in history, the 35 acre park was the scene of warfare between the Algonquin and Iroquois Indian tribes, and between England and American Colonies during the Revolution. Be sure to see these historic monuments: Statue of Father Isaac Jogues, the first white man to have seen Lake George; bronze sculpture of ‘The Indian’; the figures of Gen. William Johnson and King Hendrick of the Mohawks. Also are the remains of the southwest bastion of the Old Fort George stone fortress.
Enjoy a beautiful picnic setting of trees with fireplaces, picnic tables, pavilion, water and sanitary facilities. Sits across from the lake. Small parking fee."
