When people think of New York State, they automatically think of the bright lights of New York City. However, the Empire State, as the name implies, is the size of a small empire. With almost 20 million residents, nearly 55 square miles, and hugged by a Great Lake and the Atlantic, New York is a pretty big place! In the heart of this great state, you can find the Finger Lakes. A weekend in the Finger Lakes is all that it takes to fall in love with this region. Here are my tips:<\/p>\n

Getting There<\/h2>\n

If coming from Washington, DC, you can come by car in six hours. Once you leave the beltway, it’s smooth sailing. Depending on which lake you decide to go to, you can also fly into Rochester, NY, Syracuse, NY, or Binghamton, NY. Remember you want to bring some wine home, so I highly suggest you travel by car!<\/p>\n
