Yates County, New York

Wine lovers, take note. Yates County is situated in the middle of Finger Lakes wine country. It’s in the western part of New York, bordered by Seneca Lake to the east and Canandaigua Lake to the west.
The landscape is gorgeous. Think rolling hills, pristine lakes, and scenic vineyards as far as the eye can see. There are opportunities for hiking, boating, and fishing. They’re all popular pastimes here.
Mennonite and Amish communities add to the area’s cultural diversity. You’ll often see horse-drawn buggies sharing the road with cars. Penn Yan is the largest village here. Despite its natural beauty and attractions, Yates County remains refreshingly down-to-earth and unpretentious.
