About Kiamesha Lake
Kiamesha Lake sits along Route 42 in Sullivan County, right between Monticello and Fallsburg. During the Borscht Belt era, it was a busy vacation hub anchored by the massive Concord Resort and lively summer bungalow colonies. Today, that hospitality scene has turned into modern attractions like Resorts World Catskills and The Kartrite Indoor Waterpark. Route 42 serves as the main commercial strip, giving residents easy access to grocery stores, restaurants, and neighboring towns.
Off the main road, Kiamesha Lake is home to a quiet year-round community, including an established Orthodox Jewish population with local schools and yeshivas. Living here gives you scenic lake views and mountain air alongside the convenience of major entertainment and shopping right nearby. With quick access to Route 17, it is a practical base for anyone looking for Catskills living with everyday essentials close at hand.
