Built in 1824, the original lighthouse tower was almost destroyed during the Civil War, fell into disrepair, rebuilt in 1870, and now is open to the public as a maritime museum and library.
While at the lighthouse, we received a tour in the museum by a very knowledgeable gentleman. Learning about the lighthouse and the Sodus Point area was very interesting. The lighthouse has a very nice little museum of collectibles, maps and other maritime artifacts. We were even able to walk up the lighthouse tower (not an easy task) and see the beautiful view.

At Long Acre Farms there is something fun to do for everyone. They have New York's first Amazing Maize Maze. In the Back 40 Play Area is a jumping pillow, giant slide, and a whole lot more. At the Farm Market, Bakery, and Sweet Cone Shop you're sure to find something delicious to eat. In the Courtyard you can mine for gems in the sluice or pet the friendly goats. Plan your next adventure here!JD Wine Cellars is open year round with a growing selection of red, white, and 100% whole fruit wines. You're sure to find a style of wine to enjoy!
We stopped here on the way home after dinner last night. "The Farm" is always a great spot in our area to spend a summer night. They have a wonderful ice cream stand, and lots of activities mainly for the kids. The corn maze won't be open for a few months, but there is lots to do already. The only problem yesterday was that they don't have "no-sugar-added" ice cream flavors yet, but I'm sure they're coming. Stop by when you can. It's fun!

Beechwood State Park is an interesting location. There are three entrances. One at the bridge over Maxwell Creek, one to the East, and one to the West. At the bridge entrance you can walk South up Maxwell Creek toward a small waterfall. There are generally folks fly-fishing along the banks. The two trails to the West of the bridge head toward an old Girl Scout camp that is on the shore of Lake Ontario and the West shore of Maxwell Creek. There is a trail to the East that travels the East side of Maxwell Creek. The old abandoned camp is a little spooky. But there are great trails for walking and running. In the winter the trails are ideal for cross country skiing. You can't beat the views of the lake at the end.

We love coming to this beautiful park, located on the southern shoreline of Lake Ontario, It's in a beautiful location, and has something for just about everything. The biggest attraction is the unobstructed view of the lake and shoreline, which is covered with flat, smooth rocks which everyone loves to skip on the water. The park has plenty of picnic tables and bar-b-que grills for those summer eat-outs, and there are swings and a new jungle gym set for the little ones.
One warning about this place: it is ALWAYS colder then you'd imagine, and the wind is always blowing here as well, so bring along a light jacket even in warmer temperatures.

Tour the Smith Family Farm to learn more about the boyhood of Joseph Smith Jr., the first prophet and president of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Visit the nearby Sacred Grove, where Joseph received a vision of God the Father and His Son, Jesus Christ. Tours are Free.
My family greatly enjoyed our experience at the Smith Family Farm. Whether you are a member of the LDS faith or not, walking through the restored Smith farm, which was a jumping off point for one of America's most enduring religious movements, is educational and insightful. The Mormon missionaries who guide you through the sites are respectful and considerate. You will have as much time as you want to go through everything. My family particularly enjoyed spending time in what Mormons refer to as the sacred grove.

This is a really cool stop if you are out for a country drive. Beautiful brand new building with a tasting room that overlooks the stills. Staff was very friendly and informative. The tasting is free and included mixers for those who need to cut straight liquor. Only vodka for now but the staff said there was more varieties to come! Bought a bottle, great with tonic.

We really enjoyed the all you could eat buttermilk pancakes. We got sausage and coffee too all for around $10 a person. The other highlight was the store which sold maple syrup obviously and maple syrup granola, cotton candy and all kinds of other stuff. Great family experience!!!

This is a wonderful little place that is a bit unexpected in the setting where it resides. It is actually part of Long Acre Farms, and it has brought a new industry to this part of the county.
The wine cellar itself is a small building with a sampling bar and a store. Visitors can "take the tour" and sample a variety of local wines, some of which use grapes that are grown on the farm itself. It has a very homey feel to the place, although the productivity of JD WIne Cellars has been on the rise, and they can now be found at many of the local festivals (such as the Corn Hill Festival in Rochester). I hope they continue to grow and improve their production, because this is a really unique and fun place to visit.

Located in the business district of historic Palmyra, New York, the Book of Mormon Historic Publication Site offers you a glimpse of the printing and binding processes of the 1820s. Tours are free.
This site, the E.B Grandin publishing building, is the spot where the first copies of the Book of Mormon were published. The original building still stands, with some modern structures added surrounding it. On our tour we saw the building and learned about the way typesetting, printing, and binding were done in the early 1800's. My teens were interested in the process, and we could ask questions as we walked through. Other than the tour, the rest of the area is fairly small, with a lobby including a few displays and pictures, and a room showing what the bookshop/sales area of the original building would have looked like. The tour lasted about half an hour, and we spent in total just under an hour visiting the site.
