Canadice Lake /ˈkænədaɪs/ is a Finger Lake in Ontario County in western New York state. It is both the smallest of the four Finger Lakes in the county, and smallest in all. The lake is located approximately 30 miles (48 km) south of Rochester. The name is derived from the Iroquois word ska-ne-a-dice, meaning long lake. The lake is part of the Genesee River watershed.
