Amish Guest Farmhouse on Seneca Lake Wine Trail, Boasts Gorgeous Lake View
Located on Route 14, Penn Yan, New York, 14527, on the west side of Seneca Lake, the deepest of the Finger Lakes in Upstate New York.
Conveniently located about 12 minutes from both Geneva & Penn Yan on the Seneca Lake wine trail. This property is surrounded by 85 Acres of Beautiful Farmland.
In 2012, the property was purchased by a local horse-and-buggy Mennonite family. The Weaver family and their seven children are working each day to turn this farm and home into a nostalgic haven of rest for the world-weary travelers and for those who long for a more simple life.
While there is WiFi connection in the home, the Weaver family encourages visitors to hike, bike, and enjoy nature. There are herds of deer, friendly small animals, as well as many kinds of birds, and maybe a rare glimpse of a coyote.
With prior permission, visitors may enjoy most of the privacy of the farm's 85 acres, including a creek and gorge.
The farm boasts a spacious front yard that borders Route 14, and the only remaining working railroad in the region. Trains pass slowly once a day, creating a nostalgic twist to days gone by.
Enjoy a show of the morning sunrise or an afternoon picnic, complete with gorgeous lake views, from the spacious side porch.
This home offers a spacious 3,500 square feet, and can easily accommodate approximately 20 people. Enjoy gathering with friends and family in the beautiful wood-finished great room around the cozy fireplace.
The updated kitchen offers enough space to cook a feast, a new six-burner cook-top, double wall oven, stainless steel dishwasher, garbage disposal, large walk-in pantry, microwave, granite countertops and a large stainless steel fridge & freezer.
The Weaver family has been involved in greeting visitors for the past 18 years with the handmade quilts they've designed and sold all over the world. The family currently runs a country store out of the barn located on the property that features their charming homemade Amish quilts, homemade jams & jellies and homegrown vegetables when they're in season. To ensure the comfort and privacy of our guests, vacation rental parking is separate from the rest of the farm.
The home is decorated with local hand-stitched quilts, giving it a cozy old-fashioned feel.
Give us a call to book your dream vacation in the beautiful Finger Lakes!
This farm house is also available and perfect for weddings, reunions, church group retreats, quilting & sewing retreats, picnics and so much more!

Fantastic family vacation! Plenty of space for 13 people and a dog. Great central location for all our activities- kayaking, wineries, picknpatch farm, and spotted duck ice cream. Pauline was an awesome host! Then of course there was the spectacular view!!Will definitely visit again if in the finger lakes.
This was so laid back, with plenty of room for our family. Collecting our own eggs on the farm was a bonus. The Weaver family was so kind and welcoming. We would certainly book here again!
The farmhouse was a wonderful location to accommodate our large group, 13 adults. Plenty of space for both indoor board games and outdoor yard games. Pauline was a joy to meet and work with.
This is 4 our family's second time to stay. This year we were here for our daughters wedding nearby. We hosted the the reception (small group of 20). There was ample room in the kitchen for all family to help make food. Beautiful setting, plenty of room. Pauline is a wonderful and helpful hostess!
We had a lovely time at the spacious farmhouse, and we enjoyed exploring the property and the surrounding area. Our family hosted an informal anniversary celebration one evening, and the covered porch nicely accommodated our group of about 35 people. Pauline was at the adjacent country store during business hours and was available to answer questions. My young nephews appreciated their cart ride!
This was a beautiful home for our family to gather and have a wonderful time being together. It was so peaceful and so very enjoyable. Pauline was so wonderful to us and we would highly recommend this as a place for any type of family friendly gathering..

Wonderful property. Pauline was just great, very accommodating. The house and grounds were perfect for a large group. The store was a real added bonus. We will be back again!
We had a lovely time at the farm - it was a beautiful property and a spacious house - plenty of room for our family of 14. Pauline was a kind and gracious host, very welcoming
and easy to talk to.
A group of 8 kids and 3 adults enjoyed renting this house. Lots of room for everyone to sleep and the kitchen was perfect. Pauline was very kind. Kids loved the chickens and horse.

Thank you for your recent stay at the Amish Guest Farmhouse! So glad you enjoyed the spacious kitchen and that the farmhouse had enough room for your group! I love sharing the chickens and horses with guests who are interested.
The house is very spacious and everyone enjoyed it immensely. It brought us back to our childhood memories as we had an aunt with a farmhouse that was similar to this. Loved the store and enjoyed the beauty of the hand made quilts. I’ll definitely stay here again when I plan my next visit.
Beautiful farmhouse location! Tons of space for our family reunion. The kids loved the chickens and pony rides. The Weaver family was wonderful! A great experience!

We are so pleased that you enjoyed your time at the farmhouse!
This is a very high quality property! We appreciated the well equipped kitchen (including 2 refrigerators) and plenty of common space for our group of 16. Pauline was easy to communicate with, as well as friendly and responsive. The younger folks especially loved the little taste of farm life as well as playing with Savage. With such a full house, we wouldn't have minded one more bathroom on the 2nd floor. But overall, everything was as advertised, and much more! Thank you!
A beautiful property with a gorgeous view of the lake. The kitchen is stunning! It was like stepping back in time but with all the modern conveniences. Pauline the owner was a gem to work with. Would highly recommend this as a wedding venue or family vacation!
We had a wonderful visit here at the farm. The kids loved gathering eggs, riding in the buggy and being able to just run around. The adults loved the kitchen! We were all able to be in there all at once! The farm is very convenient to wineries, parks, groceries! A wee bit of heaven!

I may be a bit biased (being a resident of Penn Yan), but I do think the farm is a bit of heaven. So glad you enjoyed! Hope to see you again.
We came here with family to celebrate New Years. This was the perfect spot! We all had a comfortable place to sleep, the large kitchen was perfect for all of our meals and snacking, and the property was fun to explore! We had an infant and multiple dogs so we were very thankful that the house was so large and every bedroom was very quiet, no matter what else was going on in the living space. We would all recommend this house and will probably be back next year!!
The Cooke children were raised in Geneva in the 60’s and 70’s. All of the children returned to the area with their children and their children’s children and spent the week at the Weaver Family Farm. The Amish Farmhouse was a perfect location that allowed us to all stay together under one roof. We enjoyed revisiting memories while creating new ones…shopping in Geneva, in Penn Yan, and at the Windmill…pontooning on Seneca Lake…hiking at Watkins Glen…golfing at multiple courses…touring wineries and distilleries.Pauline was a fabulous host, so kind and thoughtful. She made us feel so comfortable that we all looking forward to returning.
Our family has a wonderful time at our stay in the beautiful Amish farmhouse at the Weaver farm. The house was big and had an amazing nostalgic feel. The weather didn’t allow us to explore the property but we still had a great time being together! Pauline was a perfect host - so kind and accommodating. She always responded promptly and went out of her way to make our visit everything we’d hoped!

the house is huge. plenty of room for everyone. there really is not an easy access to the lake. the master bed could use a better matress. the views are beautiful and we saw deer turkeys fox and many birds. getting fresh eggs was also enjoyable.

Hello Brian,
Thank you for choosing the Amish Guest Farmhouse! It is a great place for many people to gather.
Thank you for the feedback on the mattress!
You are correct. We do not have easy access to the lake. We are lucky to have access but for guests who truly want to take full advantage of the lake and all it offers, we recommend Roy's Marina in Geneva.
So glad you enjoyed gathering the fresh eggs.
Hope you have a wonderful summer!
Sincerely,
Pauline

Family gathering/vacation with grown family. The place was great. Very spacious. The kitchen was fantastic. It had everything we needed. There was plenty of space for all 9 of us to be in there and cook together. Plenty of sleeping space for everyone. The porch gave us a beautiful view of the lake. We enjoyed it during an afternoon rain with a cup of coffee. The Hostess is phenomenal. So gracious. Easy to get to for all our day trips.
