What Does LGBTQ+ Friendly Mean?
Vacation is meant to put your mind at ease. There is no better feeling than walking into a hotel, restaurant, winery, museum or other destination and being immediately comfortable, knowing you can be yourself. Finding those spaces shouldn't be an additional planning burden for the LGBTQ+ community. We want to highlight and celebrate spaces of belonging and make them easier to find here in the Finger Lakes.
