Old Daley on Crooked Lake is located in Averill Park, NY. Twenty five minutes from downtown Albany, Averill Park is a hamlet within the Town of Sand Lake. The venue was first established in the mid-1800’s serving as a stage coach stop for weary travelers. The early 1900’s brought about a massive expansion to include the famous Oak Room Lounge, Great Room and Main Ballroom.
Come celebrate with us, enjoy cocktails on the Veranda, where the lake surrounds you, or in the Oak Room Lounge with the 1940’s wrap-around bar and crackling wood-burning fire, the same lounge where the likes of Teddy Roosevelt and Legs Diamond toasted the thoughts of the day; you will be wrapped in the history and romance of Crooked Lake.
