A Journey to the Finger Lakes: Where Nature Heals and Spirit Awakens
Tucked between rolling hills and ancient glacial valleys, the Finger Lakes region of upstate New York is more than a destination—it’s an invitation. An invitation to slow down, to breathe deeply, and to reconnect with the rhythms of the natural world—and with yourself.
Here, the land speaks in whispers. Waterfalls tumble down mossy cliffs, carving pathways that have existed long before memory. The lakes themselves—eleven slender fingers of deep blue—stretch out like conduits of peace, mirroring the sky and drawing the eye inward. It’s as if each lake holds the ability to reflect not only the clouds above, but the truths buried quietly within you.
The Finger Lakes are not a place to conquer. They are a place to receive. To witness how the land holds grief and joy alike, how water wears down stone not through force, but through presence. And how healing comes not all at once, but in layers—through the body, the mind, and the soul.
So if you find yourself weary, searching, or simply needing space to remember who you are—come to the Finger Lakes. Let the land hold you. Let the water teach you. Let the stillness guide you home.

"There is something magical about this barn and the surrounding area. I booked this for the 2nd time and I cannot express how amazing it was. The barn is spotless, has everything you need, and the airplay speakers are fantastic. I slept extremely well and enjoyed watching the sunrise from the sitting area window. Erin is an excellent host and very responsive."

"My only regret is not staying for longer. What a beautiful atmosphere you've created!! This was exactly what we needed. Just a nice quiet night. I wish we had had more time. I would have liked to enjoy the firepit, see the stars, and listening to the coyotes. That sunrise with the big window was magnificent!!" --Kelly
A great place to enjoy a snow storm!! This beautiful, light and spacious barn stayed warm and cozy no matter how cold and windy it became outside. The WiFi was reliable, but hardly needed as this was the perfect place to rejected distractions and focus on self and wellbeing. The time passed quickly between the sauna and comprehensive yoga supplies. The coffee was also fantastic!!

Erin was a wonderful host and very responsive. Her property is quaint, quiet, and peaceful. It is the perfect retreat. If you are looking to get away from the busyness of life than this is the place to go. What a way to recharge and reset. I will definitely be booking another stay.

Such a stunning, peaceful spot amidst farmland near the Finger Lakes. The converted barn had spacious rooms with lots of windows - just lovely. Erin is a great host, as we booked this on a whim with just a couple hours notice. And the Apple speakers were great.
