Keuka Lake

The Y-shaped lake with the pioneer wineries.

The crooked lake — the only one shaped like a Y — with Hammondsport at its foot and the region's pioneer wineries on its slopes. Quieter than Seneca, and arguably prettier.

Start with the shape of the shoreline, choose the right base, then build meals and stops around the route—not the other way around.
