You know it is summer in Finger Lakes Wine Country when (Part Two):

You can enjoy a cruise on the lakes. More Info
Choose from Captain Bills on Seneca Lake or the Esperanza Rose on Keuka Lake and enjoy a delicious meal paired with a relaxing cruise on your favorite lake. Want some more adventure? You can also take a ride on the Lee Sea Ann with Captian Terry Stewart with Seneca Sailing Adventures or for a different sailing experience -all aboard True Love with Schooner Excursions. Whatever your choice, you're in for a beautiful ride.

There's live music... everywhere! More Info
Who doesn't love a live concert on a summer evening - or afternoon! Corning's Gaffer District offers live music in the square during the noon lunch hour in Centerway Square throughout the summer. Many wineries offer weekly summer concerts too. Enjoy Friday Nights on the Brew Deck at Wagner Vineyards, Music on the Blue Heron Cafe Terrace and Tune in the Tent at Heron Hill Winery, and special events like this weekend's Winestock at Three Brother Winery and Jazz Greats at Glenora. Of course you can't forget about Music, Margaritas and Sunsets on the Terrace at the Rockwell Museum of Western Art. Who doesn't love that combination?

You can soar sky-high in a glider. More Info
Enjoy the thrill of a lifetime and experience the wonder of motorless flight. Visit the National Soaring Museum on Harris Hill in Elmira and learn about this unique form of transportation. You're invited to fully appreciate this adventure with a glider ride over the beatuiful Chemung Valley.

The Windmill Farm & Craft Market is open every Saturday. More Info
Yesterday we mentioned Wisner Market - well this is another must-visit. Situated on Route 14A just outside of downtown Penn Yan is the Windmill Farm & Craft Market. The Windmill plays host to nearly 200 shops and craftsmen, boasting everything from farm fresh produce to an on-site Chiropractor, you're sure to find something for everyone. Make sure to come hungry, the Windmill is home to some amazing food vendors - especially the homemade baked goods!

The Patio is open at the Watkins Glen Harbor Hotel. More Info
Whether it's a meal, a snack, or just a glass of Finger Lakes wine, The Patio at the Blue Point Grill in the Watkins Glen Harbor Hotel is the perfect setting to kick back and relax after a full day of museum-going, wine tasting, or hiking and biking. You don't have to be a guest to enjoy The Patio, although the Watkins Glen Harbor Hotel is a beautiful spot to stay during your trip to Finger Lakes Wine Country. The menu is top-notch and the wine list is extensive - and the view? To die for! The Patio sits right on the south harbor of Seneca Lake.


Stay tuned for more exciting reasons we love summer in Finger Lakes Wine Country!
