Winery Holiday Hours
Many of our wineries are open 362 days out of the year, though some are closed seasonally, and for certain holidays. You can see more detailed information on our FAQ page, where we have a section dedicated to this question here: https://senecalakewine.com/faq/ We always recommend you directly contact any winery you’re especially interested in visiting on a given holiday to make sure they will be open, as sometimes they change their schedule and don’t necessarily inform us.

Fall Foliage Report
As of September 21, 2017 the leaves are just barely starting to change color on the southern end of Seneca Lake, though if cooler temperatures are sustained, as is currently predicted, we will probably experience peak foliage a little earlier than usual. Per the official ILOVENY Fall Foliage Report, as of today, “In the Finger Lakes region, color change is coming on strong in the Elmira area of Chemung County. Look for up to 50 percent color change and midpoint conditions by the weekend with bursts of orange leaves of average brilliance along with hints of yellow and slight subtle shades of red slowly coming in. In Seneca County, look for a 25 percent change with some yellow leaves of average brilliance on smaller trees. In Steuben County, spotters in Corning expect a 20 percent color change with some shades of gold, yellow and orange leaves of average brilliance. ” For more current information on fall foliage in our region, and throughout NYS, visit the ILOVENY Fall Foliage Report here.
