In reply to Kim. Yes! I absolutely LOVE the Finger Lakes and was actually just talking to a friend about planning a trip back here soon. You'll have a blast! Enjoy!

Oh I’m so glad I found this post! I was thinking about visiting the Finger Lakes from Connecticut, but wasn’t sure what to expect. Looks like, wine, wine and more wine, with some kayaking splashed in, which’ll make me one happy duck!

In reply to Christina. Hey Christina! Fun! I'd recommend checking out Corning, and perhaps stopping in Ithaca too. Such a beautiful part of the country! Enjoy -- I'm sure your wedding will be beautiful.

Hi Alex-
Thanks for the descriptions of your stops! I’m actually planning a trip to the finger lakes over Labor Day to travel around and find a cute place to get married next year. Nothing crazy just somewhere for our small party to have a great time and enjoy the fall in NY. Would love to hear about any additional beautiful stops along the way.

Grew up in Hammondsport, haven’t been back in years, Autumn is definitely the best, leaves turning, grapes ripening and picked, maple sap pouring into buckets and that aroma! You must return in the Fall.

In reply to Geoff. I bet, Geoff! I grew up in Albany and even in an urban/suburban area like that, fall is the most stunning season. Love me some leaf peeping!

In reply to Alex. While there are many lakes in the Finger Lakes region, the map you had, I'm sure, highlighted the Five main(biggest) lakes, hence the name, the Finger Lakes. Because on a map they look like five fingers. So technically, you were correct. Thank you for this article. I grew up on Keuka Lake at my Grandparents cottage. I have also worked at Heron Hill a couple of restaurants on the lake. When people ask me why I don't move somewhere warmer, I tell them I can't, I'd miss the lake too much. I would highly recommend that you come back to the area at the peak of the fall foliage. Then you will know exactly why I don't want to live elsewhere.

In reply to Kay Bailey Kaiser. Aw, thanks for having such a photogenic little tractor there for me to capture :) I was very excited to spot it!

Great pictures, especially the one of our tractor next to the little barn!
