Gone With the Wind Bed and Breakfast

My friend and I wanted to get away for a bit of a retreat. The owner was friendly and made suggestions for places visit, provided wonderful breakfasts, let us make use of kayaks on the lake. The beds were comfortable. The inn was beautiful, with a wonderful view of the lake on the porch. It was all so peaceful that my friend and I felt our cares were gone with the wind during our stay. Would make a great place for couples or ladies retreats

This was a bit of a mixed experience... there was a lot of good but also some not so good parts of this bed and breakfast. I’d honestly give it 3.5 stars if I could, but rounded up since I can’t. We’ve stayed at several bed and breakfasts in the finger lakes and honestly overall this was my least favorite.nnOk, so to start with the good... the house is beautiful and the woman who runs it is nice, although honestly she treated us more like distant relatives who were staying at her house than paying guests. The view is awesome and the food, while by no means fancy or gourmet, was pretty good for the most part. The woman who helped with the food over the weekend was really nice too.nnNow for the not so good... there are no locks on any of the doors, which I found to be off putting and not something I was ok with. There were several other couples staying there and I was uncomfortable with not having any type of lock on the door. I also specifically asked if the room had a private bathroom and was told yes... when we got there we found out that it’s only accessible by going out in the hallway, which I feel I should have been told when I asked about it. Also, the room we stayed in faces East and the woman specifically told us we would want the shades down in the morning since the sun comes in, which was nice except that the door to the balcony didn’t have a shade on it, and since it was a half lite what’s the point of having shades on the windows next to the door?? After being up at the crack of dawn the first morning we had to put a towel up over the door. We were never told what was being served for breakfast until it was being brought to us, nor were we asked if we had any allergies or anything. The first morning we had to ask for both coffee and water, which was a little odd.nnOverall it wasn’t a bad experience, but I wouldn’t stay here again.

We're friends with the owner Linda. And she lets us come swimming anytime we want to.nShe is a very nice person.

A beautiful home away from home where we can disconnect from the world

Friendly and comfortable.
