About Wayland

Tucked into the rolling hills of northern Steuben County, Wayland is a quiet village with a classic small-town feel right at the edge of the Finger Lakes. Daily life centers around a close-knit community and the local Wayland-Cohocton schools, giving the area a friendly, grounded atmosphere. Because several major regional routes connect right in town, it is easy to commute to nearby hubs while coming home to open space and a peaceful, relaxed pace.
