About this property

The Garden Suite in this National Historic Landmark in the Village of Geneseo

Note: Despite any verbiage added by the listing website, or ads you may see, this is not a whole house. This is a 4-room apartment in the secluded south wing of the historic 1835 Hartford House overlooking our walled garden.

Your private entrance enters off the pool area. There are two bedrooms, a full bath and a kitchenette area. It sleeps three or four with our available rollaway bed. The unit does not have a stove but it has other kitchen appliances including refrigerator, microwave, toaster, coffee maker and a dining table.

Also on the property is the Genesee Volley Tennis and Croquet club so bring your racket and your tennis shoes to enjoy our Har Tru court. Croquet equipment supplied. After you book, contact us if you are interested in playing in either our club’s tennis or croquet leagues on week days.

We are within the Village of Geneseo, walking distance to downtown and SUNY Geneseo, and a short drive to Conesus lake or Letchworth State Park, or stay home and explore our 70 acre farm teeming with wild life. Pets welcome!

If you need more space there are an additional three units available listed as the Hartford House on this site. The large house is 15,000 ft.² so nobody gets “the whole house.“ (See VRBO # 2336515 to book the other three units or VRBO #2339466 to take all four, including the Garden Suite)

Those who take all four units get exclusive use of the pool area and the front veranda overlooking the Genesee Valley. If you take just this unit you may have to share the pool with other guests.

The property is also available for weddings and events from May to October, however, this unit is the only one that is available year-round. This is also the only unit that allows pets.
During your stay at this bed & breakfast, you're just a quick walk from State University of New York-Geneseo. Features include an outdoor pool.
  • Free Wi-Fi (speed: 100+ Mbps (good for 1–2 people or up to 6 devices))
  • Take a swim in the outdoor pool
  • On-site recreation includes tennis courts
  • 9 minutes on foot from State University of New York-Geneseo and a 3-minute drive from Genesee River
The Garden Suite in this National Historic Landmark in the Village of Geneseo offers its guests an outdoor pool and a garden. The front desk is open around the clock.

This Geneseo bed & breakfast is smoke free.

Amazing Stay in the Secret Garden

My wife and I loved our time in this hidden gem. The garden, feilds, and pool were an amazing oasis. The host was responsive and accomodating. The inside is so cozy, and the beds are amazing comfortable. Plus the location near Rochester gave us access to friends as well as things we wanted to do. Food options are minimal, and the kitchenette doesn't have plates or cups, but as long as you bring the food you want you're all set to go!
