About this map

Skaneateles Lake dominates the eastern half of this landscape, its western shoreline marked by prominent features like Shotwell Point and Mile Point. The village of Skaneateles serves as the hub at the lake's northern tip, where Skaneateles Cr begins its path northward through the industrial and residential corridors of Willow Glen, Mottville, and Skaneateles Falls. This 2016 survey illustrates a well-developed road network and a concentration of family and community history recorded in numerous burial grounds, including Lakeview Cem and Saint Marys Cem.

Further inland, the terrain rises toward Cottle Hill, overlooking a series of smaller hamlets such as Baptist Corners and Shepard Settlement. The map provides specific detail for aviation and local infrastructure, noting the Skaneateles Aero Drome and residential clusters along the lake's edge like Thornton Grove and Skanondaga Heights. This modern record effectively tracks the interface between rural acreage and lakeside development on the Onondaga and Cayuga county line.
