Steph was a great host and her breakfasts were amazing. Very laid back and comfortable atmosphere and we appreciated the conversation with Steph during breakfast. We were in the area to see Mama Mia at the Landmark Theater in Syracuse, so it was a short stay for us. However, the Finger Lakes Region is great area with plenty to do during seasonal times Thank you Steph for a great stay!

Stay here when visiting the Finger Lakes

One night visit at this Inn while we were traveling through the Finger Lakes. Great location to explore the area. The Inn is tastefully and interestingly decorated with lots of antiques. Each room is different and has its own name. Lots of comfortable sitting rooms plus living room with couches and a pool table. Wonderful creative breakfast.

Beautiful home. Excellent breakfasts. They do not permit eating in the bedrooms, which is okay by me. They have a 2 hour check in time and they are grumpy about people not calling ahead for a late check in - again, okay by me. They really encourage people to socialize at breakfast.

We are a couple traveling through Waterloo to visit the Harriet Tubman home. To our surprise, Waterloo is an historic town, particularly regarding Women’ rights and abolition. The Gridley Inn is located within the blocks of historic Waterloo. We were totally charmed by this historic home which was built about 1848. It has some original furnishings and on the walls, documents and pictures tell of its first inhabitants who founded a Music School with a theater, much appreciated by my husband, a classical composer. We so enjoyed meeting the owners, who were wonderful hosts,

This is a beautiful heritage home in the town of Waterloo, New York. It is a very short walk to downtown. We arrived early but we were welcomed and able to move to our room. Parking is available. The Statesman room was very comfortable. We also met a young resident artist, Catherine who also works at the Inn. A very comfortable front porch and living room. Breakfast was fresh and home made. The Star Restaurant was recommended and we were very impressed with both the service and our meal.
