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.

Hobbit Hollow House looks forward to welcoming you.

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.

The home was incredibly charming and we had such a great stay. It is a short drive to downtown and has beautiful views of the lake from multiple rooms. There is ample space for multiple families and the home is well equipped. The property management was extremely responsive and attentive during our stay. We would definitely recommend this home.

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.

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.

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.

Our third year and we're planning to come back again. Comfortable, clean, and convenient to everything in Skaneateles. An amazing house--even better than the pictures.

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.

This home is beautiful. We loved that everyone had their own private space with each bedroom having its own bathroom. Can't say enough good things about the house and the hosts. The house was spotless too. We hope to come back!

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.

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!

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.

Everything about Hobbit Hollow is wonderful - the property/setting, the view, the house itself, the decor. We have stayed every December since 1998 - it provides a much needed escape from the hustle and bustle of working in NYC, and gets us in the Christmas spirit. The renovation work kept much of the interiors the same, thankfully! A perfect weekend, and we are already looking forward to returning next year!

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.

The whole experience was just fantastic Each room was done with such taste. The whole entire house was perfectly clean. Kitchen was fantastic, had an area where the food went from the caterer’s before entering the dining room. Everything was just perfect! Thanks so much for giving us the opportunity to celebrate our son’s graduation. We couldn’t have asked for more!
