South Hill at Nundawaho and Bare Hill, or Genundowa, were regarded as the origin of the Seneca People, the “Great Hill People.” Native People came to the Vine Valley area, climbed South Hill and Bare Hill, and lit fires as part of the Genundowa Ceremony; at Bare Hill, the lighting of the Lake Ceremony was revived in 1953 and has been held on the Saturday before Labor Day each year. Vine Valley was named for wild grapes found by settlers and became known as a good place to fish. The first steamboat launched on Canandaigua Lake was the Lady of the Lake in 1827, and boats picked up passengers and goods in Woodville and at as many as 65 other stops. Whiskey Point was the site of a whiskey still that supported a profitable and widespread business in the early 1900’s. Seneca Point was settled by Gameil Wilder in 1788-89, where many orchards belonging to Native Americans were seen; it later became a popular steamboat stop, and a hotel operated there in the 1870’s and 1880’s.
