Hi. I am not sure if I have the right area or not for New York. I am looking to come up to the fingerlakes for a girls weekend. I was wondering what area was the best to stay at - as far as lake wise. And do you have any favorite wineries up there? Thanks so much.

Re: Fingerlakes
I love them all, but Seneca Lake would be fun for a girls' weekend. We've stayed at rental cottages, but there are hotels in Watkins Glen or as pp mentioned you could stay at Belhurst and include some spa treatments.
There are great wineries on each lake. Some of my favorites:
Seneca Lake: Fox Run, Glenora, Fulkerson, Wagner, and Hazlitt. Belhurst is beautiful, if $$, and has decent wine also.
Keuka Lake: Dr. Frank's, Ravines, Keuka Overlook (run by a crazy old hippie), MCGregor
Cayuga Lake: Hosmer, Knapp, Swedish Hill, Thirsty Owl
Definitely check out http://www.fingerlakeswinecountry.com/ for more information, they have maps and listings of places to stay. I hope you have a great time!
I'm a little biased... I just got married at Glenora a few weeks ago, but I think it is the best place to stay on Seneca Lake. Right smack in the middle of wine country.
There are also, as PPs mentioned, a ton of B&Bs around the lake... the only one I know by name is the Pearl of Seneca Lake. Some of my family stayed there for the wedding weekend and loved it!
