About this property

School House Suite Located near Colgate & Hamilton College, Waterville NY 13480

A unique one room school house of old converted into a cleverly designed, highly functional, ultra modern space! No detail too small was overlooked! It is located on the majestic grounds of the Tower Homestead built in 1800 and listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places. It is walking distance to the Waterville Triangle Historic District settled in 1792. Waterville, with its glorious folklore, was once called the Hops Capital of the World and home to the infamous Loomis Gang!

Cute overnight stop

We enjoyed our stay here. Great setting and super cute. We wished the bed was more comfortable but other than that it was a really nice place to stay. The Waterville Standard Bakery is the place to go in the morning! Short walk into town but get there early, there will be a line.

Great location and accomodations!

Such a cute suite! It is cozy and has everything needed. Dianne was so sweet to provide a gift basket of goodies and yogurt in the frig. We stayed only one night while passing through but would love to have stayed longer. The bakery in town was a short walk away for a delicious breakfast.

Hello and welcome to the School House Suite! I am excited to have you experience the suite and the historic village of Waterville!

I can't imagine life without my family, the fresh air and beauty of the Adirondack mountains and the comfort of my home. I'm known for making a house a home and have put those talents into play in the School House Suite. My motto in life is very simple...Find something to laugh at or someone to laugh with everyday...I hope your experience with School House Suite is comfortable, cozy and leaves you wanting to return.
