We loved our stay at Magnolia Place! This was the perfect place for our first trip to the Finger Lakes. The location is definitely the best you will find. Our room was well maintained and the breakfasts were amazing!! Our hosts took time each morning to check in with us and offer ideas for each day. We will definitely book again when our travels take us back to this area!

We had a wonderful stay. The Inn is absolutely beautiful with amazing views of the surrounding vineyards and of Seneca Lake. The inn had amazing antiques about and we enjoyed a delicious home made breakfast every morning. We will definitely be visiting again.

Beautiful property overlooking Seneca Lake. Hosts were very friendly. The room was very clean and comfortable. Our Lake Room had a private bath across the hall which some guests may not like but it worked fine for us. Amazing stay overall and plan on coming back.

The owners Ron and Kathleen were wonderful hosts. Ron cooked us breakfast each morning. It was like having your own personal cook. And boy was it delicious! Their bed and breakfast is clean and comfortable. Love the porch where you can sit outside and watch the sunrise and sunset and you have a view of the Lake. Can't get any better than that!

Magnolia Place is magnificent! It was very clean, beautifully decorated, and welcoming! The innkeepeers are gracious and very knowledgeable of the area! The breakfast is top notch! I would highly recommend staying here. The rooms are lovely! The location is perfect if you want to explore the vineyards and also its central enough if you want to hop over and visit other surrounding lake towns! We will be back!!

Old Fashioned Values in a B & B
Wonderful place to stay, beautiful Bed and Breakfast with a huge porch to sit out on in the evenings watching the sun set over lake Seneca. The owners Ron and Katy are very personable and truly care about your comfort and stay. Ron makes a incredible breakfast each morning, you will not go hungry. Close to many wineries and breweries. I had back surgery two months before my stay and have trouble with soft beds. when Ron & Katy found out that the bed in my room was hurting me they went out during the day while we were away and bought a new mattress for our bed and replaced it so I would get a good night sleep. "Above and beyond " what we would have expected.

Fantastic Casual Getaway!
We had a wonderful time staying at Magnolia. It was close to wonderful wineries, in the middle of both main towns and close to some wonderful attractions. The room was clean and comfy and we loved sitting on our private balcony. Breakfast was fantastic and offered something we both could enjoy. he property was beautiful and offered great views of the lake. We would totally recommend this place to others we know heading to the Finger Lakes!

In order to start celebrating my birthday we went to visit family, on the way back we decided to stop by around the finger lakes. Stayed at Magnolia Place B&B that was really good idea. The place is very cozy and friendly. Daily breakfast is fresh and very creative as well as full of good flavors. Highly recommended.

Great stay!
We had a really great time. Magnolia Place is beautiful, the rooms are very nice and comfortable and we felt right at home. The owners and their puppy are very welcoming and helpful and there are a few restaurants and bars with in walking distance too. We had a blast at the local wineries and breweries as well! There are only a few down falls... 1. It’s right on a main road and the cars drive FAST especially right on the stretch where the Inn is. 2. We tend to keep to ourselves and didn’t like that tables has to be shared for breakfast even if there were only a few other couples there. 3. Breakfast was at 9 am, not 8-10 or 9-10 just 9 am or your missed it. Besides the few small items listed above, we were extremely pleased and will plan to return!
