[6 Sep 2015: Correction Made & Additional Link Added to Finger Lakes Post]
A large 1930 reservoir which expanded the size of the body of water to 49 miles by 5 miles.Its oulet: the Hudson River.
While the 1st link below speaks of considerable public access, what I found along NY30 was virtually all private property. The shot was taken near the Sunset Bay RV Park.

Zooming in and aiming a bit to the left to omit the RVs in the above photo, one can clearly see that this is a large lake. Notably, it was largely financed by those who would benefit from it rather than with tax revenue from the State of New York. And there may have been a house or an apple orchard here at one time.
