South Glens Falls is a village in northern Saratoga County, New York, United States. The population was 3,744 at the 2020 census. The village is surrounded by Town of Moreau and separated from the City of Glens Falls by the Hudson River

Cooper's Cave, shown on the village seal, is named after the author James Fenimore Cooper. Cooper was inspired to use the area as a location in his novel, The Last of the Mohicans, after visiting the area. The cave is within the bedrock of the Hudson River, but a viewing platform under the bridge between the village and Glens Falls allow visitors to see it from a unique vantage point.
