About this park

Texaco Beach is a small dog-friendly stretch of Lake Champlain shoreline with shallow, wadeable water and sunset views across the lake. It sits right off the Island Line bike trail, with a footpath down from North Street that keeps the crowds thin. Reviewers love it as a cool-off spot on summer mornings and as a quiet, scenic perch in the off-season.

The highlights

Reviewers rave about the shallow water that lets dogs wade in safely and the classic Lake Champlain sunset views. It stays quiet even in peak summer because it takes a bit of effort to reach.

Before you go

Access is easiest by bike via the Island Line Trail or the footpath down from North Street. There is no parking lot at the beach itself, so plan to walk or ride in.
