The Greater Hammondsport Area Chamber of Commerce & Visitor Center

Hammondsport, New York has something to appeal to every taste — both literally and figuratively.

At first blush, the traveler sees a quaint village square and tree-lined streets with echoes of old New England here in the middle of the Finger Lakes region. This peaceful small town vibe offers the perfect destination escape for families, friends, and lovers alike looking to get lost among our wine, beer, hiking, biking, and historic museum trails. Situated in a valley with splendid lake vistas on both sides of the “crooked” Keuka Lake, Hammondsport is surrounded by over 20 wineries on Keuka alone, all of them scattered in the elevated hills resplendent with viticultural wealth. For the lake lover, stop by the hammondsport.org website to contact one of many Chamber of Commerce member businesses that can arrange your boat rental or fishing charter. When it’s time to take a break, pull up to one of many lakeside restaurants with dock access. The autumn traveler will witness those same surroundings transform into the most majestic fall foliage in the world; the perfect backdrop for your day trip of visiting Hammondsport’s two renowned museums: The Glenn H. Curtiss Museum of natural history with a focus on aviation, and the Finger Lakes Boating Museum, now at home in the historic Taylor Winery complex. When it’s time to rest your head, we’re certain you’ll find amongst our top-notch accommodations options the perfect place for relaxation; whether you need a B&B, hotel, or vacation cottage. With a summer series of festivals and events to rival any town in America, you’ll surely agree with our oft-recited phrase, “There’s always something happening in Hammondsport!”
