Not sure if the comment about Otsego Lake being related to the Finger Lakes should stay in. Hydrologically, it is not part of the Finger Lakes at all, as it drains into the Susquehanna watershed (the Finger Lakes drain into the Lake Ontario watershed). Perhaps this should be made more clear that Otsego was carved by glaciers, like the Finger Lakes.
I propose that Council Rock (Cooperstown, New York) and Sunken Island be merged into this article. Both are extremely short, unsourced stubs that have received only a handful of edits (mostly housekeeping) since being created almost 10 years ago. Both pages are only linked from this article (and some dismbig pages). This seems pretty uncontroversial, so unless there are any objections I will likely complete the merge after a week or so.

I've finished my initial review of the article. For the "Appearances in Literature" section, the prose is sufficient for GA, though it is a bit repetitive. If you're interested in making the prose in this section closer to FA quality, I would suggest eliminating the formulaic "(place) is the location," and "in the novel (name of novel)" phrases. Diversifying the sentence structure, or condensing these ideas into a 1-2 sentence summary might help. Let me know when you've completed all the action items above. I'll read through the article again once everything is addressed to make sure no new issues arose. Again, apologies for the delay. I'll see if I can get this wrapped up soon, pending your changes!
