About this place

City-owned Seneca Lake shorefront park on Lake Street in downtown Geneva with a boardwalk, gazebo, and disc golf course; because the city's own code bans park fires without an explicit grill carve-out (unlike neighboring Canandaigua's code), charcoal use is marked No and propane should be confirmed directly with the city.
