New York State Route 338 (NY 338) was a state highway in Washington County, New York, in the United States. The western terminus of the route was at NY 40 in South Argyle, a hamlet in the town of Argyle. Its eastern terminus was at NY 29 in Greenwich. NY 338 connected both highways to the hamlet of Cossayuna and nearby Cossayuna Lake in northeast Greenwich.
The entirety of NY 338 was a county road until 1980 when New York State assumed maintenance over the highway and designated it as NY 338. It was given back to Washington County in 1996 and is now County Route 49 (CR 49).
NY 338 began at an intersection with NY 40 in South Argyle, a hamlet within the town of Argyle. The highway headed eastward, passing over hills and intersecting with several local roadways. As NY 338 approached Cossayuna Lake and entered the town of Greenwich, it intersected with CR 48, the primary roadway along the western edge of the lake. NY 338 continued east along the southern extents of the waterbody to the lakeside hamlet of Cossayuna, then turned south toward the hamlet of East Greenwich. The highway passed Browns Mountain to the east and Carter Pond to the west before terminating at an intersection with NY 29 on the banks of the Batten Kill west of East Greenwich.
