Kill Kare State Park Details
Located on the tip of St. Albans Point, this scenic park was once the site of a boys summer camp, which operated from 1912 until 1966. Before it was a summer camp, the land was also a hotel called the Rocky Point House Resort, which has since been turned into a museum about the park. Because the park is surrounded on three sides by Lake Champlain, there are many opportunities for swimming and fishing. It is also possible to rent kayaks, canoes, and paddleboats at the rental shop next to the museum. After exploring the park, you can take the 10-minute ferry over to Burton Island State Park for more activities and outdoor adventures.
