- dennis sWoburn, MA79 contributionsWonderful lake, and the surrounding area worth exploring. We went in the winter, so we didn't go in, but just got to know the general area, which was great.Written 26 December 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Michael HRed Bank, NJ3 contributionsGreat trail one mile there and back to car strategically located with trail to and from distillery and brewery.

- Mark GCatonsville, MD3,366 contributionsStaying at the Sherwood Inn, it is an easy 4 mile drive along the west side of Lake Skaneateles. We went in specifically to get a bottle and take it outside for those beautiful views of the hillside vineyard and the lake. There are so many different places here to sit and enjoy their wine that when we saw a what looked like rain coming, we went inside to a loft area with a window looking out over the property. Our bottle was a very good blend of Riesling, Chardonnay and Cayuga White called Avail.
They have a music stage and host the Skaneateles Festival each August. This vineyard is unique to the other Finger Lake vineyards, since it is so much higher in elevation other Finger Lakes Vineyard's vines have to be buried to protect them from the colder temperatures.Written 1 August 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

We learned so much about the bourbon, whiskey, gin and moonshine we tasted. I've never been one that's into sipping bourbon, whiskey, etc but it's now clear that I wasn't trying good stuff until we found Last Shot. Can't wait to get our bottles home!Written 14 October 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Guest654321Massachusetts261 contributionsThe parking area is very small. Not well maintained and it can be slippery. We went after rain and the ground was wet. A but dangerous if you are not used to nature trails. Definitely not for families with younger kids. Great fall and it's well worth the visit.Written 31 August 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Julia S4 contributionsStunning! If you want to walk down to the river, it’s quite a few steps down, but not too bad. Would recommend water shoes for kiddos.Written 15 July 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

- chaimaintenanceRochester, NY33 contributionsHudson school painter’s private collection preserved in the annex to the town library. Gorgeous historic landscapes covering all the walls. A knowledgeable volunteer was quite helpful. It’s a small space packed with art. Free admission and worth a brief stop while you are in Skaneateles.Written 3 September 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
