About
Sackets Harbor
Overlooking sparkling Lake Ontario, Sackets Harbor offers year-round activities for the whole family. Sheltered on Black River Bay, the village is a designated New York State Heritage Area with historic sites and attractions. Tree-lined streets and sidewalk gardens offer colorful contrasts to historic architecture and War of 1812 Battlefield. Enjoy lunch or dinner waterside, spend a day fishing, or take a family bike ride on the trail around the village.
