About this property
Charming, spacious farmhouse close to village, lake and wedding venues
Beautiful fully-equipped 1840 farmhouse set on 5 private acres overlooking Skaneateles lake. Four bedrooms (one is a loft) and two full baths comfortably accommodate eight. 5 minutes to Skaneateles Marina and Anyela's vineyard. 5-10 minutes to Village, Skaneateles Country Club and other event venues. Robust WiFi, A/C in the bedrooms, large eat-in kitchen, living room w/ smart TV, music room with baby grand piano, large central hall/dining room. Grounds include formal and cutting gardens, two small ponds, a regulation horseshoe pit, three patios with outdoor tables/seating and a Weber gas grill, a fire pit, a small orchard and much more. There is a large lawn for volleyball, wiffleball, frisbee, soccer and croquet (all available/provided). Perfect for families and close friends, as the bedrooms are interconnected by a bathroom and two staircases, one of which is spiral. (This means that to get to the twin bedroom or the loft bedroom, you will need to walk through another bedroom and/or bathroom.)
Quiet, comfortable and beautifully appointed. Room for everyone to enjoy good times together--or to relax privately inside or out, with reading nooks, a music room and multiple gardens and patios.
Full-size crib and/or pack-and-play available upon request.

About the host
Hosted by James Howard Mion
Jim and Nancy have owned the Old Salt Road farmhouse since 2007 and prior to 2025 used it only for family gatherings, to lend to friends and to donate its use to charity auctions. Now that Jim is retired, they are seeing what it would be like to offer it as a vacation rental.
They hope guests will enjoy the farmhouse and grounds as much as they have for the last 18 years.
Their primary residence is just outside Princeton, NJ.
