Camp Good Days and Special Times is located on the western side of the northwest branch of the lake. YMCA Camp Cory is located on the eastern side of the northeast branch of the lake. Camp Iroquois, run by the New York State Sheriffs Institute, is located on the eastern side of the bluff. While the shore of the lake is primarily residential, Keuka College is located in Keuka Park on the western shore of the east branch and Keuka Lake State Park is located on the eastern side of the northwest branch of the lake. Hammondsport was the home of Glenn Curtiss, a pioneer of naval aviation, and is now the site of the Glenn H. Hammondsport lies at the south end of the lake.
The village of Penn Yan is at the northeastern tip of the lake, and Branchport is at the northwestern tip. "Gink" Doherty coaxes the structurally modified Langley Aerodrome into the air above the surface of Keuka Lake near Hammondsport, New York in 1914. Bathers may wish to wear water shoes when swimming in the lake. Furthermore, their sharp shells can cause lacerations on the feet of bathers. Their small size enables them to clog water intake pipes. In addition to disrupting the lake's ecosystem, zebra mussels can be a nuisance to lakeside homeowners. The infestation of European zebra mussels, which has impacted many North American bodies of water, has also affected Keuka Lake and other Finger Lakes in New York. Additionally, KLA collects and publishes data about the lake level. Tributary streams, groundwater, and the lake itself are regularly tested for water quality. The Keuka Lake Association (KLA) monitors the water of the lake to ensure that it is suitable for its many uses, such as drinking, fishing, and swimming.
The complex ecosystem is subject to contamination of the watershed, largely by storm water runoff. Humans, fish, and wildlife depend on the rich ecology of the lake habitat. The productive fishery is supported by huge numbers of baitfish, most notably alewives (sawbellies), and is a very popular lake with area fishermen. This body of water possesses large and healthy populations of lake trout, brown trout, rainbow trout, landlocked salmon, smallmouth bass, largemouth bass, and yellow perch. Its thermocline is between 30 and 35 feet (9.1 and 10.7 m) deep. It has a surface area of 11,730 acres (47.5 km 2), and a maximum and mean depth of 186 feet (57 m) and 101 feet (31 m) respectively. The lake is about 20 miles (32 km) long and varies in width from one-half mile (0.80 km) to two miles (3.2 km). This canal was later replaced by a railroad branch line which is now a hiking and cycling trail, the Keuka Outlet Trail. At one time the outlet was developed into a canal, the Crooked Lake Canal, connecting the lakes. The stream empties into Seneca Lake at the village of Dresden. The Y-shaped Keuka Lake empties into another Finger Lake, Seneca Lake, through a stream called Keuka Lake Outlet at the lake's northeastern end in Penn Yan.
