About Knight Point State Park

Knight Point State Park sits on a point of North Hero Island in Lake Champlain, reached by driving about three miles south of the village on U.S. 2. Visitors can swim at a sandy beach, launch their own boats, rent boats, paddle stand-up boards, fish, and picnic on wide lawns or in shaded areas with grills. A walking loop follows the shoreline, and a cobbled shore that is a State Natural Area lies nearby. The park also has a historic house and a reconstructed tavern wing tied to the island's ferry past, four pickleball courts, and an open-air pavilion that can be rented.
