The Long Lake Outlet is a natural waterway located in New York State. It acts like a drain, carrying water away from Long Lake. This small river then flows into another stream called Cummings Creek. You can find it in Oneida County, east of a town called Hawkinsville.

Where Does It Start and End?

The Long Lake Outlet begins its journey at Long Lake. This lake is in a place called Holiday House, New York. The water starts flowing from an elevation of about 1,466 feet (about 447 meters) above sea level.

Its Journey to Cummings Creek

As the outlet flows, it travels through the landscape of Oneida County. It eventually reaches its end point by joining Cummings Creek. This meeting point is near Hawkinsville, New York. At this spot, the elevation is lower, around 1,115 feet (about 340 meters) above sea level.

Nearby Waters
