Don’t Let the Colder Weather Stop You from Enjoying the Finger Lakes for the Holidays
As one year comes to a close and another opens, vacation rentals in Skaneateles sit amidst a winter wonderland. The vast “long lakes” region is full of outdoor winter activities and lovely homes to warm up within.
At the end of the day, after taking in your new surroundings, you can sit by the fire or a fire pit at some of the available rentals. Explore your many options and find the rental home size and amenities. Cozy beds, spacious living spaces – there’s a property for you alone, or your whole family.
Winter Fun
The Finger Lakes are known for their beautiful, adventurous skiing options. All year long there are activities such as enjoying on Main Street, visiting a winery, or taking in culture at art galleries. The snow and chill of this season offer a special slew of sporty options. Skiing, tubing, and skating are among some of the most popular and memorable itinerary items for Skaneateles locals and visitors.
Downhill Skiing
For downhill skiing, visit a surrounding mountain or resort-like Greek Peak Mountain Resort, Labrador Mountain, Song Mountain, and Toggenburg Mountain. Greek Peak Mountain Resort also has a Tubing Center to snow tube instead.
Cross Country Skiing
If cross country skiing is preferred by you and your company, try the Greek Peak Nordic Ski Center, Highland Forest County Park, Finger Lakes National Forest, or the Keuka Lake Outlet Trail.
Dickens Festival
Since Thanksgiving, this Skaneateles festival has hosted special holiday events with the magic of a Dickens Christmas.
