NEW! Historic Charm in the Heart of the Finger Lakes
Step back in time without sacrificing a single modern luxury including, after
Mid-June, chef prepared pre-made meals or even prepared on-site. We also host
training workshops for pre college students coming up next summer Aug
23rd-29th, 2027, as well as yoga retreats and a wine-tasting classes (please
inquire if you are interested). Built by one of Livingston County’s founding
families, this beautifully renovated historic farmhouse combines grand 19th-
century architecture with the cozy, soul-warming vibes of a true country
escape. Located within a 10 mile radius of four top notch wedding venues, we
offer to plenty of space to get ready for that big day. But even if you’re
here for a family reunion, a graduation, or a getaway to the Great Outdoors,
this house will become your ultimate home base.

From the moment you step inside, you’ll be greeted by 10-foot ceilings,
original built-in cabinetry, and a grand sweeping staircase that anchors the
home.
* **Relax & Dine:** The ground floor features a spacious, fully equipped eat-in kitchen and two separate entertainment rooms—perfect for groups who want space to spread out.
* **The Sunroom:** Open from April-October, you can also start your mornings or host a lazy Sunday brunch in our bright, airy sunroom equipped with a dining set large enough for 8\. The electric fireplace and radiator make sure that chilly nights are also warm for late night dinners.
**Restful Retreats (The Second Floor)**
Each of our four bedrooms offers a distinct personality to suit every
traveler:
* **The Romeo and Juliet:** Features a romantic antique four-poster queen bed and a private balcony a la Romeo and Juliet's famous scene. It’s the perfect spot to share a quiet morning espresso freshly made.
* **The French Quarter:** Transport yourself to New Orleans French Quarter inspired suite complete with a fridge to cool your white wine and tailored for the ultimate night's sleep with a king-sized adjustable firmness mattress —no more compromising on how soft or firm you like your bed!
* **The Dynamic Duo:** A hit for kids (and the young at heart), featuring two full beds, a Smart TV, a mini-fridge for treats, and some classic board games.
* **The Executive's Den:** A queen bed paired with a dedicated workspace, a reading chair and lamp, and away from outside noise for those who need to stay connected while away.
