We provide a centrally-located, quiet, peaceful place to relax in-between your day trips to the local attractions.

Our Ovid cottage boasts 2 inviting bedrooms with 1 queen bed and 1 full bed. The cozy living room features a comfy futon for extra relaxation. Guests can unwind in the soothing bathtub after a day of exploring. With amenities like AC, WiFi, and a washer/dryer, your stay will be convenient and comfortable.

Fishing trip to finger lakes

Enjoyed the place. Clean and neat. I have a 24' boat so the loop driveway made access and parking easy, which was much appreciated!
