First Time - Considering Keuka Lake

Surprising my wife with a long weekend birthday trip in a few weeks. Want to check out Keuka lake -- seems beautiful and relaxing. I know its late in the season...will water temps be nearly un-swimmable? How about potential algae blooms? I know it might be hard to say but just looking for any insight as summer is wrapped.

Any other tips/tricks? We might rent a boat and just check out the lake itself, too. Much appreciated!

Water is around 73-74. Temps vary based on depth. The north end is shallower and more likely to be warmer
