Findley Lake is a village for all seasons. The Findley Lake Area Chamber of Commerce sponsors a year-round calendar of events that kicks off in March with the annual Maple Syrup Festival.  In the summer, the lake itself is a flurry of boating, fishing & water sport activity.  A hometown Memorial Day Parade kicks off a summer season, followed by the 4th of July boat parade, featuring holiday festivities and a spectacular fireworks display. The "Harvest Festival" and October's "Autumn at the Lake" signal the the fall foliage season is around the corner, and in November's "Christmas through the Village" kicks off the holiday shopping season.

Findley Lake has become Chautauqua County's premier shopping destination with over 20 independently owned specialty shops offering an eclectic assortment of Nature, Country and Victorian gifts, as well as antiques, furnishings and handcrafted treasures for your home and garden. And while your here, You must visit the Candle Cottage Store located behind the candle store, where you can see the most Unique candles being made. Come see our waterwheel.
