Glentworth has been our family’s summer home on Friends Point since 1956, and we share it with guests by the week. The house looks north up the lake to Rogers Rock and Anthony’s Nose, a view many consider the best on the lake. It’s peaceful and private, yet close to much of what Lake George has to offer. Many of our guests come back year after year.

A typical day here includes a swim off the dock, a paddle out to the islands, and lunch on the lawn. In the evening you can gather around the fire pit and watch the light fade over the mountains.

The House
The interior porch is the heart of the house, with views of the lake and mountains from nearly every seat. The great room has a large fireplace for late fall and winter stays, and there’s a good supply of board games for rainy days and cool evenings. The dining table expands to seat 14, and the kitchen is equipped to feed a big family, with large and small appliances and everything you need for real cooking. The porch and all the bedrooms have ceiling fans, and a whole-house generator provides backup power when needed. There’s room for everyone, from grandparents to grandkids.

Sleeping Arrangements (up to 10 guests)
- Three bedrooms on the main floor (queen & twin, king, two twins)
- A fourth bedroom above the kitchen (king)
- Flexible extras: a summer-use cabin (twin & cot), two spare cots, and a pull-out double sofa bed on the porch (please request spare cot & porch sleeping in advance)

Outdoors and On the Water
The large lakefront lawn has nine Adirondack chairs and an outdoor table that seats eight. It’s ideal for summer lunches, afternoons with a book, or simply watching the lake. You’ll also find swings, lakeside benches, a hammock, a gas grill, and a fire pit with ample firewood for evenings by the water. A canoe and two kayaks are ready for exploring the shoreline and nearby islands.

Autumn at Glentworth
Fall is a special time here. The lake and woods are quieter, the foliage is spectacular, and cocktail hour on the porch comes with a front-row view of the color. Evenings mean fires in the fire pit, or by the fireplace later in the season.

Good to Know
The 31-foot dock suits family-size powerboats up to about 21 feet, but not longer pontoon boats. When the wind blows from the north, waves make it hazardous for any boat that can’t be moored bow-out.
