Canadice Lake

Description

Smallest in size of the Finger Lakes, Canadice and nearby Hemlock Lake have been a major source of drinking water for the City of Rochester since 1919, following a decades-long legal fight.

That legal decision had important effects upon surrounding land, which limited development to maintain water quality. Today, most of Canadice is part of the Hemlock-Canadice State Forest, managed by the NY Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC).
