Hobbit Hollow House, a Turn of the Century Colonial Revival Farmhouse

Hobbit Hollow House is a turn of the nineteenth century Colonial Revival farmhouse located in beautiful Skaneateles, NY, the Gateway to the Finger Lakes. Our property offers spectacular views of our own White Birch Vineyards and Skaneateles Lake, known worldwide for its unspoiled beauty. In addition to vineyard and lake views, our guest rooms overlook colorful meadows, rolling hills and Hobbit Hollow Farm's beautiful barn and horse stables.

Hobbit Hollow House features six elegant and comfortable guest rooms, each uniquely appointed with well-crafted furniture and amenities that will make your stay more enjoyable, such as gas fireplaces, private porches and whirlpool tubs. Luxurious beds and linens will ensure a wonderful night's sleep for every guest.

Hobbit Hollow House boasts a fully equipped kitchen and elegant dining room allowing any aspiring chefs in your group to prepare exquisite meals from Finger Lakes sourced ingredients. If cooking isn’t exactly your thing, we can help make arrangements with one of the talented local chefs to prepare unique and delicious meals for your guests in the home. Or if going out on the town is more your speed, the Village of Skaneateles, only a few minutes’ drive from your front door, boasts a selection of many of the Upstate New York’s most acclaimed restaurants .

No matter the season, Hobbit Hollow House beckons you to explore its beauty. Choose from countless fun and exciting activities our area has to offer. Spend a leisurely day touring nearby wineries as well as many other local distilleries and breweries. Enjoy boat tours and dinner cruises on Skaneateles Lake, and visits to local farm stands and markets. Avid or recreational hikers will find a wide range of hiking trail systems only a short drive away, including local state forest trails, Ithaca’s amazing gorges and Letchworth State Park – the Grand Canyon of the East. Or perhaps you want to experience the spectacular annual fall foliage or downhill skiing, cross-country skiing or snowshoeing when the beautiful Central New York landscape is laden with snow.

For days when you prefer to stay at your cozy home away from home, our spacious living areas provide ample space to hang out and enjoy a quiet day of games and reading and our large estate offers opportunities to enjoy walks, have picnics, and otherwise enjoy nature with your family and friends. After exploring everything the Finger Lakes has to offer during the day, spend your evenings with a glass of White Birch Vineyards wine, relaxing on the comfortably appointed porches overlooking Skaneateles Lake as the sun goes down and the crickets and fireflies come out.

Having a memorable event? Hobbit Hollow House is the perfect location for a wedding, rehearsal dinner, vow renewal, birthday celebration, baby shower, cocktail party or corporate gathering. Our beautiful lawns and rolling meadow backdrops make for a gorgeous venue for your perfect outdoor event.

You will enjoy every minute if you are lucky enough to stay in this gorgeous property. The house itself is spacious and welcoming with breathtaking views of the lake and paddocks out of every window. Kitchen is well equipped. Just a 3 minute ride to the Town of Skaneateles.

Hi, we had a nice tome with you this weekend. A few items. There are a lot of ants int he kitchen. Not a biggie for me, but maybe others down the road will care. When using the stove the fire alarm goes off when there is no visible smoke. Stay well and thank you!

Wonderful old, grand farmhouse
This house was perfect for our friends to stay at while in town. It provides the perfect combination of large communal spaces and private areas for some alone time. Ample parking is a plus for multiple families staying together. Very close to the village yet far enough away to get out of the crowds for some quiet relaxation. You can tell it is professionally cleaned and maintained. Has all the old character of a grand Greek revival farmhouse with all the modern amenities.

Perfection
Hobbit Hollow House was perfect for our group. The spacious house has large and comfortable gathering places both inside and out. All bedrooms were large and comfortable. The host kindly supplied bottles of wine from White Birch Vineyard, pasties and bottled water. The location was great with a view of the lake and close to town. We could not have had a better experience and we hope to visit again.

We were in love at first sight when we pulled into the driveway of the Hobbit Hollow House. Gorgeous setting with a view of Skaneateles Lake on the one side, and rolling green pastures on the other side. The home itself is very well appointed, and had everything and more that we needed for our stay. We were attending a wedding for my niece, and we will be booking again for future family events! Loved it so much!

A Lovely Property
Stayed at Hobbit Hollow three nights over a wedding weekend in Skaneateles. Spacious, well equipped, gorgeous property. Great location with lovely views of the lake and the horse farm. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay - perfect for the occasion. Once the rain stopped we loved watching the horses adjacent to us - a bonus.

Amazing place to stay. House is fantastic and has everything you need for supplies, especially for a group that needs 6 bedrooms. Location is spectacular - beautiful horse farm, gorgeous lake, and spacious grounds. Perfect for relaxing or entertaining. And the delicious pastries and wine that was left for us was a wonderful extra touch. Would absolutely stay there again if we are in the area. Skaneateles is a really nice town for a get away - lots of character, things to do, and beautiful (especially in spring/summer/fall). Host was very responsive as well.

Siblings Reunion and Solar Eclipse
Our group of 6 adults stayed at Hobbit Hollow House from April 6th - 9th, 2024. It was a long overdue reunion with my sister and brother and our spouses. We are all in our 70s and we had searched through all of the listings in the NY Finger Lakes region before choosing Hobbit Hollow. For us, the historic style and grandeur of the home was a deciding factor. We were not disappointed! We were very impressed with the overall decor and quality of the furnishings. The rooms are larger than we expected and very nicely appointed. The grounds are great for exploring with great views of the lake. Everything was perfect! We highly recommend Hobbit Hollow House!

A Very Special Historic House
We loved our stay at Hobbit Hollow! With super large rooms to beautiful antiques and carpets, we were a large group and we enjoyed entertaining in this beautiful home. The kitchen was commercial grade and the dining room sat 14, with lovely Wedgwood china and sterling silver. Bedrooms and baths were nicely appointed. They even tastefully decorated for the holiday season.

Family Birthday and holiday celebration
Charming inn and property! Our family including adult 'kids' and grandchildren were thrilled with the home and the surrounds. The stretched out roominess of the inn made it easy to enjoy it and each other, and we used all six bedrooms! We were fortunate to be in town when the Dickens weekends began. We were also lucky to be able to see young people in the corral behind the inn competing in horseback riding and jumping. Lovely sight! The inn has all one needs for a group get-together! And the countryside and the lake are beautiful surroundings.

We had a great stay, family came into town for our daughter’s wedding and everyone loved the house. Location was very convenient to downtown Skaneateles and the wedding venue. Olivia was quick to respond to any questions. All bedrooms had individual bathrooms which made it easy for 12 adults to get ready. House is grand, historic and very well maintained. We enjoyed reading about its history and look forward to returning for future gatherings in the area.

Hobbit Hollow is a great place for a family gathering. With 6 bedrooms sand baths, a series of gathering rooms, a large dinning room and kitchen, it is ideal for a gathering of family. There is also great outdoor spaces for hiking, eating and cooking outside and enjoying the outdoors. We'd love to do it again.

A lovely house in Skaneateles
The house was lovely and the property, a working farm with lots of green areas was idilic for a family reunion, including a huge dining room table and lots of common areas. The property manager was very friendly and attentive when small issues arose (as they always do.). Would definitely come again.

Can't say enough!
I had a tiny wedding with just my immediate family which stayed in this house and in the cottage. We took up all the rooms which were very spacious. My sister had newborn twins and my sister in law had two toddlers, they were both able to set up cribs/ basinets with plenty of room. Even though we had all the rooms filled, the house is big enough for everyone to spread out. The property is beautiful and big enough to take long walks. Communication was very easy and fast! I cannot wait to book another stay here in the future. Thank you!

The place was easy to book. The host communicated very well. The stay is so cute. The one mishap is that the listing included an outside grill and there was not one but I understand since it isn’t quite summer yet. The house is stunning and well stocked with any necessity. There are many gorgeous views from the house including beautiful sunrises and sunsets. This was a wonderful weekend and my friends all agree that it was a great place to stay.
