Sometimes referred to as Crooked Lake because of its unusual Y-shape, Keuka Lake is one of the most popular of the Finger Lakes.

The lake is quite shallow, meaning that the water gets quite warm in the summer and is ideal for swimming and other watersports.

There are plenty of marinas and boat launches along the shores of the lake, and motorboats, jet skis, and paddle boats are available for rent.

The lake is also an excellent destination for wine-lovers; located right in the heart of Finger Lakes Wine Country, the area is full of rolling vineyards and award-winning wineries.
