The Fall colors are starting to pop in the Finger Lakes

by Rick Moscarito, October 20th, 2021

Our spacious and luxurious vacation rentals in Skaneateles offer a change in outdoor scenery that includes gorgeous lakes with the perfect backdrop of orange, red, and yellow fall foliage.

In the region by the “long lake” lie warm, grand homes owned by a loving couple married for over 20 years await. Fall in the Finger Lakes is unlike anything you have experienced, and once you do, it is surely something you’ll want to duplicate in subsequent years. The beauty this season does not compare.

Fun for Everyone

Some of these homes are in the heart of main street while others are nice and secluded. All of them have plenty to enjoy in the surrounding area. Find yourself golfing, going to fairs, concerts, farmers markets, and winery tours. There’s a vast array of activities and must-visit locations like dining, shopping, outdoor activities like horseback riding, zoos, and the most notable wineries. 

There are multiple, notable wineries near each of the four local Finger Lakes: Cayuga Lake, Seneca Lake, Keuka Lake, and Skaneateles. Not only are there wineries to walk through and try your tongue at tastings, you can also visit orchards — especially this time of year!

Apple Orchards

The Finger Lakes vacation rentals are in a region of New York renowned for its variety of Apple Orchards. The luxury rentals are conveniently located within short driving (or walking) distances of many attractions including these perfect apple orchards for fall.

• Leubner Apple Farm
• Navarino Orchard
  
• Owen Orchards
• Beak & Skiff Apple Farms
• Tim’s Pumpkin Patch

At most of these locations, you can visit their bakery with yummy donuts, pies, and crisps. Go enjoy homemade cider and pick-your-own apples. At Tim’s Pumpkin patch, you can even pick your own pumpkins! Surrounded by changing leaves, red apples, and orange pumpkins, the holiday season will really set in here like nowhere else.

The Perfect Homes for the Whole Family

For the holidays, instead of adding the hustle and bustle of traveling to a family member’s home or hosting, meet each other halfway. Gather around the fireplace of a new home, creating new traditions. If the old traditions are too good to change, then now is the perfect time to have a vacation before all that preparation starts.

Sneak away for an end-of-the-year trip at one of 10 unique Finger Lakes Luxury Rental properties. At a majority of them, the whole family including furry, four-legged companions are welcome:
