Summer in the Finger Lakes

                      
 
There aren't many places left on Canandaigua Lake to enjoy the beautiful lake views. There's Kershaw park a great spot for picnics and swimming but if you want to eat out by the lake and have an experience, there's nothing like Canandaigua Inn On The Lake. You can go down to the Sand Bar where the atmosphere is super casual and watch the boaters come in, with drink or two and order some bar type food. On Wednesdays and Fridays you'll catch some local talent and get to enjoy live music. Sometimes you'll find people just sitting on the grass, taking it all in. Then there's the patio up above that offers up delicious main entrees where I've celebrated many events over the years. I really love that the Inn offers Finger Lakes wines to choose from, a focus of mine who as a lover of the amazing wines we have here, am disappointed many local establishments don't show case them. After dinner you can stroll by the lake where you'll find plenty of comfortable redwood Adirondack chairs, strategically placed along side the lake in front of the Inn, to take in the sunset during the long, dog days of summer. The Inn has also added a popular Finger Lakes wine and beer tasting event under the tent on Wednesdays during July and August. I'm already freaking about the Inn's closure next year to begin their huge project to update the facility through 2020.This has always been my go to place to bring friends from out of town or just to kick back with my husband. There really is no place like it. The Inn On The Lake represents the best of summer in Canandaigua. So better get down to the Inn on the Lake and make the most of it. After all summer is fleeting in Western New York.
