Conesus Lake is the westernmost of the 11 Finger Lakes. Often referred to as one of the �Little Fingers,� it is located about 25 miles south of Rochester, New York. In 1924, the City of Rochester announced plans to use Conesus Lake to supplement the water supply for its residents. A year later, cottagers around the lake successfully banded together to protect Conesus�s sparkling waters and preserve the area as a summer resort. Over time, the lake area has grown, and restaurants, taverns, campgrounds, and amusement parks have sprung up from the demand of the lake�s many visitors. Today, four towns�Geneseo, Groveland, Conesus, and Livonia�border the approximate 18 miles of shoreline.
