Experience refined Finger Lakes elegance in a restored 19th-century village perched directly on the eastern shore of Cayuga Lake.

Overlooking Cayuga Lake, this meticulously restored village haven offers a collection of historic residential inns designed with curated art and antique architectural details. Lakeside ceremonies unfold on sweeping emerald lawns as sailboats drift along the water, followed by elevated tented receptions or intimate dinners in private dining parlors. Guests can stroll between charming Federal-style homes, indulge at the hilltop spa, and celebrate against the backdrop of dramatic Finger Lakes sunsets.

Venue highlights

  • Waterfront ceremony site
  • On-site lodging & guest rooms
  • Indoor & outdoor reception spaces
  • Sunset photography over the lake

What couples say

WeddingWire reviewers praise the Cayuga Lake setting and responsive staff who help work through event details. A winter-wedding account highlights excellent food and a seamless transition from ceremony to reception. Another couple describes gracious handling of a pandemic cancellation; that historical experience should not be treated as a promise of current cancellation terms.
