Don’t Let the Summer Slip Away Without a Stay on the Finger Lakes

by Rick Moscarito, August 25th, 2022

With summer coming rapidly to a close, it can feel like there isn’t enough time to plan a once-in-a-lifetime getaway.

Visiting one of our Skaneateles luxury vacation rentals can help to cure those summer blues. The picturesque location in upstate New York makes it possible for people from New York City and neighboring counties to take a quick drive to the Finger Lakes and enjoy the remainder of the summer by the water.

The Finger Lakes is Calling to You and Your Family

You and your family may be dreading the end of summer. With school beginning again, the nights getting dark, and the air getting colder, it may feel like the best days of summer are long behind you. But when staying at one of the vacation rentals in Skaneateles, you will see that you can make the remainder of your summer the high point of the whole season.

The Finger Lakes is an ideal place for canoeing, kayaking, and paddleboarding, so if water sports are your passion then the Finger Lakes are just the place for you. If you’re more interested in relaxing, you can dip in the crisp, cool waters for a swim, sunbathe on a pool float, or tan by the shore.

If you prefer to stay busy while on vacation, look no further than Skaneateles Marina for a variety of dining and shopping options. The location is perfect for day trips or nights out on the town before retiring to one of many luxurious and unique Skaneateles Lake vacation rentals.
