We went to Skaneateles for a few hours and we were really happy that we did. The town is really cute with lots of fun stores and places to eat and very Covid friendly.

So much fun. It's actually not scary once you get going. You feel very safe in the harness and you feel that your kids are safe. It's such a great activity for right now during the COVID crisis. You get to be outside and do a unique experience like that. My daughter had turned 10 (we did it for her birthday) and a little hesitant so we only did two of the seven courses over the three hour time. Tons of unique activities just on these two courses. The zip lines were the biggest hits. Total blast throughout and makes you want to go back. We went early and were glad we did- it got a lot busier towards the midday point when we were leaving. Highly recommend, especially now.

We were staying in the area, and decided on a whim we wanted to go kayaking on Seneca lake. A quick Google search led us to Reagan's. We were quite pleased with the experience -- within a few minutes of arriving at the business we were standing at the lake shore, paddles and life jackets in hand, with two kayaks. Doug delivered the boats to the lakefront for us. Before setting out, we had a nice picnic in the shade of the huge cottonwoods right on the shore. We had a great time out on the water. We found that while a windy day makes for some choppy water, it can actually make the experience more fun! The rental price seems very reasonable. It was especially nice that it was a full-day rental, so we were able to take our time out on the water. FYI: payment is by cash or check only, but there is an ATM at a motel near the boat ramp, so this was not an issue for us.
8. Douglaston Salmon Run
Overall Ratings
4.0 based on 24 reviews
Opened late in the 1980's, the Douglaston Salmon Run was developed as a low pressure, catch and release fishing environment to maximize the outdoor experience of every guest. Two and a half miles of private waters fishing offers a world class sports fishing destination with seven nearby lodges available year round for guests. Over the years, the DSR has evolved into a fishing experience for every type of angler, but definitely those who value natural surroundings as much as catching fish. Fly fishermen, casters, and drift boat fishing types come to the DSR for the catch and release, the atmosphere of respectful outdoor sporting, and for the attentive staff who work year round to keep the DSR clean, accessible and a good value.
