The Chittenango Creek is a river in upstate New York in the United States . It rises about 10 km east of Cazenovia Lake , at the southern end of which it flows and whose drainage it takes up there in the place Cazenovia. From there it flows north and crosses the Chittenango Falls State Park , where it forms a 51 m high waterfall north of the village of Chittenango, consisting of several cascades. It finally flows into Oneida Lake , to whose water supply it contributes about 25% together with Oneida Creek .
