In between, the two-lane route serves Yates County and the village of Penn Yan, located at the northeastern tip of Keuka Lake.

The route heads to the northwest, passing under the Norfolk Southern Railway's Corning Secondary as it runs up the side of a hill.

After 1 mile (1.6 km), the highway takes on a more northerly routing, passing by several farms as it proceeds through Reading Center and toward the Yates County line.

[citation needed] Once it reenters Yates County, NY 14A runs due north across the town of Starkey to the village of Dundee, where it is known first as Main Street.

At the north end of the village, it turns west on Millard Street at a junction near the Dundee Central School.

Midway between Hall and Geneva, the route picks up NY 245 just before it crosses Wilson Creek, a small stream feeding into Seneca Lake.

[2][9] In Penn Yan, NY 14A once followed Main Street, located one block to the east of its current routing.
