Lake Joseph, a private lakefront residential community is nestled around Lake Joseph, a 250 acre non-motorboat private lake. The lakefront community is located on the town line of both Forestburgh and Thompson and is only minutes away from Route 17 and approximately two hours from the city, a rustic getaway with a suburban feel. What sets this community apart from other lakefront communities is that it has larger parcels of land compared to other older lakefront communities, yet without the large price tag of Chapin Estates.
All exteriors in the community are wood and set on large parcels of land required by covenants set to protect the natural shoreline. We are currently have these two beautiful lakefront homes under contract in the Lake Joseph Community and are looking for more inventory!
