Waccabuc blends lakeside calm with country sophistication, centered on the storied trio of Lake Waccabuc, Oscaleta, and Rippowam. In this historic hamlet of Lewisboro in Westchester County, winding lanes, classic stone walls, and a protected hamlet district give everyday life a timeless backdrop. Residents kayak at daybreak, glimpse fairways at the private Waccabuc Country Club, and enjoy a community ethos that prioritizes land stewardship and privacy without sacrificing connection.
Nature is daily currency here. Trail systems lace through preserves, and the expansive Ward Pound Ridge Reservation offers miles of hiking, fishing spots, and winter cross‑country routes via the county’s official Ward Pound Ridge Reservation. Culture waits minutes away in Katonah, home to the acclaimed Katonah Museum of Art and summer concerts at Caramoor Center for Music and the Arts. Neighboring Pound Ridge adds boutique dining and additional trailheads, rounding out weekends with ease.
Families value the Katonah‑Lewisboro schools, with students continuing to John Jay High School through the well‑regarded Katonah‑Lewisboro School District.
