Seasons of Life BNB

Unique 950 SQ ft of private space above our barn home in the quaint village of Naples. Close to dining, breweries, wine tastings (several local) and boutiques. Some of the best the Finger Lakes has to offer. Venture out enjoy a nice walk, hike, fishing, boating, biking & music venues . Steps from the famous Naples Grape Festival end of September. Grill on the deck and at night, enjoy roasting s'mores by our fire pit. A full continental menu arranged ahead so you may enjoy whenever you're ready. The space Our home has a fun history fact. The house looks like a stick built home but originally built as a church barn in 1847. It was later moved nearby to be used as a barn. One of the original owners lost his home in a poker game and had to turn the barn into his family residence. I can not imagine how his family felt about that! When we purchased the barn home it was in need of much updating . We have since remodeled it all. The upstairs was still a barn with nothing but barn walls. We added 1500 sq ft upstairs. 950 SQ ft is now a beautiful rental suite with the rest as my private art studio and husbands hobby room. We do not use that space during guests stays .We ask our guests to please respect our wishes and do not enter the art studio without our approval or using extra beds. There is another staircase that leads directly up to the art studio but is closed off when we have guests. There is a barn door which separates the two spaces for our guests to have total privacy. When adding addition, we left barn beams exposed allowing for a true barn experience. We are pleased with the outcome and our guests rave about the design. With years of experience managing vacation rentals and owning another BNB in the past we believe we know the importance of offering a clean, spacious, enjoyable private space for guests traveling through our beautiful Finger Lakes area. We selected the name Seasons of Life because of all the various seasons we have experienced over our lifetime . Since we moved to Naples area 35 plus years ago, we have been blessed to live in three different homes. All various styles carrying great history. We enjoyed remodeling them all. Two times we relocated thinking we would like to settle in other states only to find there is nowhere quite like Naples. So here we are since 2017 in our current home. Once again, remodeling and updating another quaint house. This one is definitely unique and we love having the opportunity to share it with others. We added two very comfortable twin size beds for extra guests that are located in the art studio. Between the king size bed and twin beds, a three or four girl getaway is definitely an option. A two couple getaway to enjoy a fine weekend in our area or mom and dad who have a child the barn suite could accommodate them comfortably. Thank you ahead of time for selecting the Season of Life BNB where we believe you will enjoy a wonderful night sleep, delicious homemade baked goods from local bakers and an overall awesome time here in our incredible village.
