Welcome to The Lodge at Mill Creek — a cozy studio tucked into the trees above the creek in Canandaigua, in the heart of the Finger Lakes. I’m Stephanie, and I’d love to host you.
The place
The Lodge sits up in the woods where Mill Creek bends through the property, so the sound of the water is the background music for just about everything here — morning coffee, an afternoon in the hammock, evenings outside under the trees.
We’re a short drive from the wineries, lake towns, and restaurants the Finger Lakes are known for, but honestly? Some of our favorite guest stories are about folks who barely left the property.
One honest heads-up before you fall in love with the place: the suite is an upstairs unit, and it is up quite a few stairs. We think the view and the quiet are worth every step — just pack accordingly.
Highlights
Take your coffee down to the chairs by the water and watch the creek go by. It is the slowest, best part of the day here.
There is a fire pit under the trees, a grill for dinner, and a s’mores kit waiting in the suite. Some nights, that is the whole itinerary — and it is perfect.
The hammock out back has ended more afternoons than we can count. Bring a book; you may or may not get to read it.
The suite
The studio is one warm, open space: a comfy bed nook, a sofa made for movie nights, a dining table for two, and a real kitchen for slow breakfasts and simple suppers.
There is a coffee bar stocked for your first morning, a smart TV with Netflix, Hulu, Disney+, HBO Max, Amazon Prime Video, and Roku for rainy evenings — no cable TV, we should say, but plenty to stream — plus fast wifi if the outside world insists on finding you.
