Stay at our beautiful lodge-themed private guest-house on our 23 acre homestead and relax in the indoor jetted tub or the outdoor shared nine-person hot tub. Enjoy the sounds of nature and experience the truly-amazing, gorgeous, and breathtaking views with a rustic country charm that includes waterfalls, walking/hiking trails, goats, chickens and fish that you can feed, a pond with boats, an apiary, streams, gardens, fields, woods, and much more nature. We look forward to you staying with us.
The space
Enjoy the country life conveniently a few minutes to US Rt 81 and a 10-15 minute ride to downtown Syracuse. You can be in the big city in no time and partake in all that it has to offer. When you book with us, you have the entire place to yourselves. Park in the front of The Lodge and go around the back right of the building to your own private entrance at the back of the house.
The den includes an armchair, sofa couch, printer, and desk with books and games, to use at your leisure. Sit on the couch or pull it out to sleep on it in front of the electric fireplace and smart TV with included services.
From the entry room you will go up the stairs (can be steep for some) to the second story open floor plan with enough seating for over 17 people. The kitchen is stocked with cooking essentials for your use. In the living room you will find a leather couch that can sleep one, if needed. The views are amazing!
A porta-crib and highchair can be provided upon request.
The private Master Suite has a jetted bathtub, King sized bed, electric space heating fireplace, and smart TV with services.
Going up the spiral staircase (some find this a tight fit) to the open loft, that overlooks the lower level, and sleeps up to five on two queen beds and one single luxury air mattress. The loft also includes a smart TV with services.
We have around 30-70 chickens and multiple roosters to protect the flock. Please don't chase or pick up any of the chickens, especially the roosters! Some can be friendly, some are not. They like to start their day early so we provide ear plugs and eye masks if you would like to not be woken up early.
The nine-person shared hot tub is located behind the main house garage. Go under the breezeway between the two houses. Let us know if you would like to use it and we will open it for you and close our house shades for privacy.
You will find our friendly free range chickens strolling the property as well as deer, turkey, rabbits, squirrels, chipmunks, many types of birds, and other wildlife. Our quaint pond is ready for you to ice skate, swim, and fish, depending on weather and the season - please ask. Feel free to play corn hole, horseshoes, or Frisbee in the back yard, all games are included in your stay. Have a fire in the fire-pit, cook on the grill provided. Play on the playground and jump on the trampoline. Walk or hike the property on our nine groomed trails - please stay on the trail paths. Don't miss a hike to the waterfalls! The regional snowmobile trail runs through our back yard. For an additional fee, we offer honeybee hive tours and can arrange shooting on our private range, with a certified firearms instructor.
FYI: The Camper is our other rental on the property that you or others in your party might be interested in staying at, if it is available.
NOTE: We are VERY STRICT on no visitors/pets/parties/events/meetings without prior approval! ONLY the number of guests that are booked are allowed on the property. Also, NO smoking of ANY kind is allowed in the camper or near doors or windows! By booking with us, you agree that we reserve the right to charge fees/repair costs associated with you not following the house rules. A $500 flat fee plus $25 per pet/person fee will be assessed, if you are found breaking these rules.
Guest access
The Lodge (wood front) entrance is on the back right of the building. You will have full private access to the back entry room/den, second, and third floor of the building. As well, you can use the grounds as needed. We reside in the house next door and are here if you need us, but won’t bother you unless it's needed. The segregated lower front room of the lodge is used for our businesses.
Other things to note
There are ear plugs along with eye masks, in the master bedroom and loft, to help you enjoy your sleep. The master bed will be made up for you. Due to different sleeping dynamics, the loft and pull out couch bed will have clean linens placed on them for your choosing. We have a very long driveway, so be sure to look for our house number at the mailbox as you won’t see the house from the road. You will also see our Mallory Market Farm Stand at the road. We are on well water but do have a water purification system.
The hot tub is located between our house and the Lodge. We have privacy shades that are closed when the hot tub is in use.
