Credit Union Serving Glens Falls, NY — Great Meadow FCU

Great Meadow FCU Serves Glens Falls, NY

While our roots run deep in Granville, our newest branch at 1002 State Route 9 in Queensbury puts us just minutes from downtown Glens Falls — close enough to be your everyday credit union, far enough from the big banks to actually know your name.

If you live, work, or worship in Glens Falls, you’re welcome to join.

Why Glens Falls Residents Choose Great Meadow FCU

We’re not a megabank with a call center in another time zone. We’re a member-owned, not-for-profit credit union headquartered right here in the North Country. Every decision we make — from the rates we set to the technology we invest in — gets made by people who shop at the same grocery stores, send their kids to the same schools, and cheer at the same Glens Falls Civic Center events as our members.

Here’s what that means in practice:

  • Better rates than most regional banks.
  • Award-winning local service. We’ve been voted Best of Washington County for four consecutive years (2020, 2021, 2022, and 2023), and we were named a Best of the Region credit union by The Post-Star.
  • No surprise fees, no minimums to chase. Just straightforward checking, savings, and lending products built for real households.
  • A real branch with real people. Walk in, sit down, and talk to a lender who can actually approve your loan — no escalating, no transferring, no hold music.

Your deposits are federally insured up to $250,000 by the NCUA — the credit union equivalent of FDIC insurance.
