Town of Sand Lake

The terrain of Town of Sand Lake ranges from wooded uplands across its eastern interior to gentler, lake-dotted ground around West Sand Lake and the western hamlets, giving this part of Rensselaer County a settled rural character. Sand Lake and Burden Lake shape the local geography, their irregular shorelines edged by roads, woodland, and homes. The Wynants Kill passes through the town on its course toward the Hudson River, linking local waters to a wider regional system. Formed in 1812, Sand Lake developed through several hamlets rather than around one urban centre; Averill Park and West Sand Lake remain important local communities.
