|---|
Sleepy Hollow Lake is both a recreational lake and residential community (and census-designated place)[1] in Greene County, New York, United States, located 120 miles north of New York City and 28 miles south of Albany in the Hudson River Valley. The lake is a two and one-half mile long, 324 acre, 70 foot deep man-made, Class “A” drinking water reservoir for the neighboring communities.[2] It is surrounded by a 2,200 acre residential community, also known as “Sleepy Hollow Lake”, which is a Planned Unit Development (PUD) that self-governs residential land use, maintains common roads, parks, beaches, and other recreational facilities, operates most of the development's sewer and water services, and provides community security and code enforcement. The community is within the viewshed of the Taconic Mountains to the east and the Catskill Mountains to the west. The community was featured in a 2015 episode of the HGTV series Lakefront Bargain Hunt.[3]
