About this property
The Couple's Sanctuary at the Preacher's Retreat
Built in 1873, the Preacher's Retreat originally served as the manse for the Lodi Presbyterian Church next door. This gorgeous Victorian has been lovingly restored to combine modern conveniences with historical charm.
As a guest of the Couple's Sanctuary, you and your fellow travelers will have access to the lower level of this massive property. We do not rent out the upper level to maintain your privacy during your stay.
Centrally located between the largest of the finger lakes, you can explore all the Seneca AND Cayuga wine trails have to offer. Check out Lodi State Park, a perfect spot for sunbathing and swimming, also equipped with multiple playgrounds and public boat access (4 minutes away). Or maybe take a hike in nearby Finger Lakes State Forest or Taughannock Falls State Park (15 minutes or less).
Self check-in with lockbox
-Check-in after 4:00 PM
-Check-out before 10:00 AM
**If you desire an earlier check-in or later check-out just ask. We can often accommodate requests within reason.**

About the host
Hosted by Brianna Longino

My husband and I are from Philadelphia, and we have been working in real estate together for the past decade. We put a lot of thought and effort in designing our homes so as to provide a relaxing and comfortable space for our guests.
Why they chose this property
We fell in love with the Finger Lakes when we took a trip together in 2017, so much so that we bought a home in the area 3 years later. Between the wineries and breweries, hiking and water activities, and local artisans and musicians--there is something for everyone to enjoy here.
What makes this property unique
The Couple's Sanctuary is a well-preserved piece of history, nestled between the Seneca and Cayuga wine trails. We have taken so much pleasure in restoring this home and the grounds, and we can't wait to share it with you!
