About Skaneateles


Known as the “eastern gateway to the Finger Lakes,” the historic village of Skaneateles (settled in 1790's) is located on the north shore of Skaneateles Lake, one of the cleanest and most beautiful bodies of water in the world.

A community of rare charm with lovely old homes, quaint shops and galleries, Skaneateles has been a vacation spot for the former First Family of the United States as well as many other families for years and years.


For a quiet winter experience nothing compares to walking softly through the deep snow on snowshoes.

Explore the charming village with its lovely shoreline and many shops and restaurants.

Skaneateles is also only a short drive from Syracuse, Rochester & the Finger Lakes - all filled with unique attractions for you to enjoy.

Activities:



Enjoy a boat tour of the lake, or a cocktail
cruise

Skaneateles lake is crystal clear
with a slate bottom and is 15 miles

Skaneateles is beautful during the
holidays as the whole village gets
decorated in holiday fare. Be reminded
of Christmas past as you mingle with
the Dickens Christmas characters that
wander the streets every weekend
from Thanksgiving until Christmas.

 

 

The village gazebo is dressed in festive holiday decorations for the season.
