context_page_description: Cazenovia Lake is a lake in Madison County, New York. It is located 20 miles southeast of the city of Syracuse. The village of Cazenovia is located southeast of the lake.

  Prior to European settlement of the area, Cazenovia Lake was known to the Oneida as Owagehaga or Owahgenah, and to the Onondaga as Hohwahgeneh, all of which mean "lake of the yellow perch". It was also previously known as "Canaseraga Lake".
