Guests must be able to traverse steps to reach the lower level barrel room, tv room, 4th King en suite and outdoor lawn area.

Our retreat is right smack dab on the wine trail (Route 89) Across the street from us is wooded-nobody! The rest of the neighborhood setting is park-like.

We had a fantastic time at Birch Retreat! I especially enjoyed the comfortable accommodations and the fully equipped chef's kitchen where we made fantastic meals. It is also very close to fantastic wineries and distilleries. We already planning our return trip!
It was so relaxing to stay at a beautiful property that was so close many wineries. The property was so spacious and beautifully decorated. We enjoyed relaxing by the fireplace with a glass of wine.
What an awesome house! You’ve done a wonderful job of creating beautiful private spaces as well as wonderful gathering spaces. The house was spotlessly clean and tastefully decorated. We had a wonderful stay. The only thing I would recommend to make it better would be to add a shampoo/body wash/conditioner dispenser to the bathroom in the basement for guests using the downstairs space.
Beautiful home, spotlessly clean, designed so well for couples! Plenty of room to spread out and have privacy with great spaces to gather. Great location for wine tasting in the Finger Lakes!
We LOVED this property. So clean, beautifully decorated, and over all a great space. The owners are super communicative and friendly. The backyard space was amazing with the fire pit too. Centrally located, so easy to get to wineries and all the towns. The house has everything even workout gear! Highly recommend!
We really enjoyed our stay, we had plenty of space and privacy for our 3 couples I really loved that we had 3 king bedrooms and the beds were very comfortable the kitchen and bar were well equipped and the house is decorated beautifully I would definitely stay there again the location was also very convenient
It was a remarkable getaway. All worked perfectly. The house both inside and outside is very comfortable and relaxing. Communications with the host was easy. Overall we enjoyed our stay tremendously Thank you, Nadia. Keep on doing the great job. I am looking forward to a return visit. Nikita
My family and I was in NY for my brother’s wedding. We stayed here and it was only 15 min to Auburn , where the wedding took place. This was one of the most beautiful properties , I have every stayed in. Also , Nadia, the host was by far the best ( hands down)The lines of communication that she demonstrated was phenomenal. I will be returning in the near future and will be staying at this location or any property that Nadia is the host . This wine country is ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS! It’s quiet and peaceful . You will definitely not regret your stay here!!!!
Great location at the top of the finger lakes. Clean, neat, and comfortable accommodation for two families. Many rooms for various activities, well stocked with games, pillows, blankets, bar-ware and beautiful, contemporary style. Drivable daytrips to Buffalo, Corning, Syracuse, and Ithaca. Seneca lake view from the back of the house and a short walk - we were there early April, so a bit chilly for lake activities. Friendly host, quick to respond to questions. Great experience for a group of 7 adults and children.
This house was perfect for my group of friends. The host has provided everything one would need to enjoy their time in the home. It has 4 different living room areas so we can spread out. It has 4 bedrooms all with comfortable beds and 3 amazing bathrooms. A game room on the lower level. Parking for approximately 5 cars in front of the home, The kitchen is fully stocked with pots, pans,spices, coffee,etc. This house was above and beyond my expectations. Don't hesitate to book this fantastic home. It is super, super clean and comfortable. We all had an amazing weekend.
The property was exactly as described and pictured. We highly recommend to anybody looking for a relaxing getaway. The house was cleverly decorated with a great attention to detail. It had every we needed. We prepared every meal for the weekend in the beautifully appointed kitchen. The 4 bedrooms were perfect for our group of eight. We never felt crowded. The host put together a great book of house tips and recommendations for area wineries and markets. We thank you Nadia for a great weekend with friends and hope to be back soon.
