Everyone loves a quintessential bed and breakfast, but sometimes it’s hard to find an accommodation in the right place at the right time. Fortunately, the Finger Lakes are a hugely popular destination in upstate New York, making the Starkey House in Dundee, New York, an ideal place to lay your head at night before heading out into one of the best outdoor wonderlands in the state. Just make sure you save some time to hang out on the porch and eat some delicious food.
The charming Starkey House was built in 1922 by Charles Raymond Brewer, who wanted to build the house for his family. Now it's one of the most delightful bed and breakfasts you'll find in New York.
This bed and breakfast is located in Dundee, New York, right next to Seneca Lake. You'll also have easy access to all of the activities, wine, food and more that the Finger Lakes region has to offer. The options for day trips are endless.
Breakfast is served every morning at the Starkey House. Later in the day, some of the common areas are converted into a dining space with distanced tables.
Many of the ingredients of dishes served at the bed and breakfast are locally sourced or even grown in the Starkey House owner's garden. You can even order a fruit and veggie platter to your room or porch throughout the day.
The rooms of the Starkey House also have a picturesque view of Seneca Lake. Boating, swimming, and kayaking are just a short drive away. And with so many vineyards in the region, guests will find themselves in the midst of a ready-made vacation. Tabora Farm and Winery and Fruit Yard Winery are two of the many great wineries in and around Dundee.
If you're not enjoying a delicious meal or reading a book in the B&B's cozy common areas, head outside and explore nearly two acres of gardens and beautiful landscapes. It's the kind of outdoor environment you'll never want to leave.
There’s just no place on earth more charming than the 1922 Starkey House. You can learn more about how to book your stay or follow along for your future plans on their Facebook page.
