North Greenbush Dedrick Park

2026 season passes (town residents only, proof of residency required): $75 individual, $20 individual senior (62+), $150 family; children under 2 free. Day admission (also open to walk-ins): $5/person for town residents (max $15/car), $10/person for Rensselaer County residents outside North Greenbush (max $30/car); same per-person rates apply for buses/passenger vans with no cap.

It is a designated, lifeguard-supervised town beach (swimming is explicitly prohibited when lifeguards are off duty per town rules), which points to a patrolled family swim area. No source found describing the beach's specific entry depth/slope, so that detail is not confirmed.

No significant hike is required. The swimming area is close to parking and access.

On-site parking is implied by the per-car admission fee structure, but no source found describes the lot itself (size, surface, or whether overflow/roadside parking exists).

The launch is a separate town facility on the same lake as the beach; no source specifies whether launching directly from the swim beach itself is allowed or whether the boat launch is a distinct access point.

Summer: the beach operates seasonally, opening June 20 and closing August 22 for the 2026 season, with daily park hours of 10:00 a.m.-7:30 p.m.

Access is prioritized for North Greenbush and Rensselaer County residents; season passes require proof of residency. Swimming is prohibited when lifeguards are not on duty. The boat launch is car-top vessels only (no trailers) and operates year-round. Boats/equipment should be inspected for aquatic invasive species (milfoil) per the lake association's program. Town parks have a no smoking/vaping policy.

North Greenbush Dedrick Park is on Snyders Lake, a natural lake verified in USGS hydrography data.
