Allan H. Treman State Marine Park

Allan H. Treman State Marine Park is a 91-acre facility with a substantial marina at the southern end of Cayuga Lake offering 370 seasonal slips and an eight-lane boat launch. The site provides direct access to the New York State Canal System through its waterfront infrastructure.

The park is named after Allan Hosie Treman, a Cornell University law professor who played a key role in regional park development starting in 1899. He served on the Finger Lakes Park Commission and influenced conservation efforts throughout his career until 1975.

The park serves as a gathering place where locals fish and watch birds, particularly in the Hog Hole wetland where diverse bird species are visible year-round. People naturally gravitate here to connect with Cayuga Lake and enjoy water-based activities as part of their regular routines.

The park is open year-round from dawn to dusk and offers seasonal boat storage for those planning extended visits. When planning your visit, check for seasonal weather changes on Cayuga Lake, which can affect water conditions and boating safety.

The grounds feature a distinctive stand of old cottonwood trees reaching up to 100 feet tall that intertwine with maple species. This natural canopy near the water creates a sheltered setting that many visitors pass by without noticing.
