🏡 Bluff Point & the Abraham Wagener House | Aerial View Over Keuka Lake
A stunning look north over Keuka Lake to Bluff Point, with a clear view of the historic Abraham Wagener House standing proudly on the shore. Captured from above on a beautiful fall day, this photo not only shows the dazzling seasonal color and sparkling waters of Keuka — it also frames a piece of the Finger Lakes’ early history.
Abraham Wagener was one of the founding figures of Penn Yan and a major influence in the development of this region in the early 1800s. In 1833 he built his elegant stone manor on Bluff Point, a home that once commanded spectacular views of both branches of the lake and became one of Yates County’s notable landmarks.

From this perspective, you can almost imagine the lake life of a century and a half ago — where water travel, canal routes, and local community were tied to these shores, hills, and homes. 🍁🚁
