About this map

Skaneateles Lake serves as the central focal point of this Central New York landscape, flanked by the smaller but equally prominent Otisco Lake and Owasco Lake. The late nineteenth-century economy of the region is evident in the industrial and transport infrastructure, notably the Skaneateles RR connecting the manufacturing hamlets of Skaneateles Falls and Mottville to the larger village at the northern tip of the water. On the lakes themselves, a designated Steamboat Route facilitates movement between landings like Mandana, Gregory Ldg., and the resort at Glen Haven. The surrounding uplands are densely settled with small crossroads such as Shepard Settlement and Twelve Corners, while natural features like Carpenter Falls and the steep slopes of Gottle Hill define the glaciated terrain of Onondaga and Cayuga counties.
