The Finger Lakes region offers so much for mini-mooners and travelers who need some time to relax and unwind. 38-mile long Seneca Lake, the biggest of all the lakes, offers shores packed with activities. There’s obviously the wine we’ve been mentioning, but there’s also plenty of hiking, antiquing, history, boating and fishing to keep you busy, as another couple Mark & Christi discovered.
Getting tired of wine? Check out the Crooked Rooster Brewery in Watkins Glen, at the southern tip of Seneca Lake. With eight varieties of their own beer, they’re a great alternative to the wineries. Their Wildflower Cafe next door offers a great range of foods to suit burger lovers and vegetarians alike.
If you’re up for a sail, check out Schooner Excursions which runs boating excursions from Watkins Glen June through October. Morning, afternoon and sunset sails are available and you can BYO favorite wines.
