This weekend in the finger lakes

[Mik]

Nice place. The lakes are is great, if rather Appalachian once your a mile out of town.

You lived in Pittsford, didn’t you?

[LuFins Dad]

Excellent! But a bit large, no?

Skinny, but really long. The lake that is.

It is. But I wanted a hot tub and pickings were thin as I procrastinated.

Beautiful. Did the rental come with a boat?

[jon-nyc]

Just kayaks and paddle boards. That one is theirs.

Nice area. I once vacationed near there at a small inn near keuka lake. Mennonite area.

[LuFins Dad]

I’ve been wanting to do a summer rental in that area for some time. Someplace with nice boating/swimming access, kind of remote but with a small hospitable town with a few decent midprice restaurants, but also an easy drive to an amusement park for a day trip. Any recommendations?

[bachophile]

I don’t know about amusement parks. Watkins glen is a nice day trip.

Actually canandaigua should fit the bill. There’s Sea Breeze amusement park in Rochester. Small but fun and on the water.

There might be something closer to Syracuse too.

Thanks! I just picked out a likely target… Do you think Memorial Day would be a bit early for water temperature?

[jon-nyc]

Yes plus busy

Actually the Six Flags in Darien Lake (near Buffalo) is about the same distance and much bigger
