Canandaigua Lake

The next position on the list of the most beautiful lakes in Newyork is Canandaigua Lake. You'll find it especially difficult to leave the stunning Canandaigua Lake if you visit during the height of October. The already stunning area is brightened by rich red, yellow, and orange hues, which are expertly highlighted by the lake's vivid blue water. It makes sense since its name means "The Chosen Spot".

This beautiful lake, which is 16 miles long and 1 mile wide, provides drinking water for approximately 70,000 people living in the adjacent city of Canandaigua.

One of the best lakes in New York, Squaw Island is one of just two in the Finger Lakes region. It is also one of the nicest lakes in New York. For a closer look at this charming little place, consider renting a canoe, kayak, or water bike.

You can discover stately residences and cottages along the lake's northern coast, many of which are comparable in size to those on Millionaire's Row in Lake George. Naples, a community brimming with natural beauty, is at the southernmost point (including hidden waterfalls and steep, craggy hills).
