About this property

Romantic Wine Country Retreat Spa-Hot Tub & Sauna

A Private Sanctuary for the Soul

Tucked away near the misty shores of Seneca Lake, this one-of-a-kind sanctuary is a love letter to slow living and old-world romance. Inside, the air carries a grounding whisper of patchouli and warm clove, leading you through a curated world of signed antiques, 19th-century church mirrors, and original fine art.

Every corner feels like a secret—from the rare, high-profile four-poster bed that invites you to climb into luxury, to the "slow morning" breakfast: We believe mornings should be effortless. Your kitchen comes stocked with local organic farm-fresh eggs, homemade bread, premium local coffee, local jam, and hand-bathed truffles. It is a home designed not just to be stayed in, but to be felt. Enjoy a quiet breakfast in your robe without ever having to leave the sanctuary of your home.


Your journey into wellness is entirely your own, held within a private enclave where the world outside simply fades away. The Star-Dusted Soak: Submerge yourself in a secluded hot tub, designed for deep release under the wide Finger Lakes sky or retreat to your personal infrared sauna for deep, quiet restoration.

Additional fee: For the ultimate restorative escape, ascend to the Second-Floor Salt Suite. Here, you can experience the Halo-IR chamber, a synergistic sanctuary of therapeutic salt air, soothing low-infrared heat, and the rhythmic glow of chromotherapy.

The magic continues as you sink into a locally handcrafted wine-barrel Adirondack chair, fitted with a gentle massage pad for your back and neck. While you rest, your spirit is grounded by four heated Himalayan salt domes—two for your hands and two for your feet—designed to pull away tension and leave you in a state of pure, weightless bliss. This treatment is designed to pull toxins from the body, reduce inflammation, and provide profound relief for those with arthritis or chronic tension.

Whether you are toasting to an anniversary or simply escaping the noise of the world, this is your hidden haven—a place to reconnect, breathe deeply, and linger in the magic of the moment.

A Gallery of Heritage & Art

The home breathes with history. Every corner tells a story through "Habersham Country" heirlooms—Georgia-made, signed, and dated.

Reflections of the Past: Gaze into mirrors salvaged from 19th-century Montreal churches and admire walls adorned with the original canvases of Shirley Epstein and the evocative photography of Jack Ion.

Master Craftsmanship: From the intricate mouldings to the hand-finished textures, the artistry of master craftsman Brian Beaumont ensures you are surrounded by beauty.

To maintain this atmosphere of absolute serenity:

An Intimate Enclave: To protect the delicate chemistry of our spa and the quietude of the grounds, we strictly host a maximum of two registered guests. No outside visitors; just you and the one you love.

Whiskered Companions: We welcome one exceptionally well-behaved, house-trained dog to join your retreat (with approval and a $30/night fee). To preserve our vintage textiles, we simply ask that your companion stays off the furniture and rests in their crate while you sleep or explore.

Seasonal Warmth: In the cooler months (Sept–May), our propane fireplace flickers to life, casting a cozy glow over your evening.

The Living Experience

Every detail of the home has been curated for aesthetic delight.

The Spa Shower: Step into stunning walk-in shower, featuring a soothing rain head and a glowing glass-block wall. The space is adorned with hand-selected, artisanal tiles from Turkey, Spain, and Mexico, illuminated by custom dimmable lighting to set the perfect mood for relaxation.


Secluded Privacy: While I reside in a charming tiny home on the rear quarter-acre of the property, your privacy is paramount. The hot tub deck is a completely secluded oasis..


Bespoke Services & Policy
Wine Country Concierge: As a professional driver for FLX Best Wine Tours, we are happy to curate a private tour of the region’s finest vineyards for you.

Relaxing Stay

The host of this property was great. She was in communication with us from the time we booked and quick to respond to questions. Check-in was really easy. The property is pretty, and we enjoyed the spa rooms and hot tub. We had a great stay, and we loved hiking and visiting wineries. Location of the home is perfect for short drives to many of the local attractions.

This was the best VRBO experience we have had. This is really a "spa like" home. The owner has really done everything possible to make this a relaxing and comfortable space. The hot tub was great as was the infrared sauna and salt rooms. Great location to all Finger Lakes and wineries. Hiking trails are everywhere. So close to Watkins Glen but still is a rural setting. Absolutely recommend this location.

About the host

Hosted by Christine Ion

Host profile image
Happy! Happy! Happy!... that is my innate state and my friends would agree I crackle with energy. I love meeting new people and hearing their stories; it's one of the highlights of travel. I've used Air B&B for years and in October 2020, I began welcoming guests to my own home - a cozy haven where I relax and recharge and now you can too. I retired early from my first career and am thrilled to be embarking on new adventures. My world is rich and full of color and I feel so grateful for this beautiful life.

Why they chose this property

Burdett is a friendly town. Two doors down, you'll find Mangus Farm (I bought the house from Cathy and Robert Mangus). During the summer months, you can pick berries and enjoy homemade baked goods with a delicious cup of coffee. Go approximately a block and a half to the right of the house and you will come to the Burdett Exchange. Local veggies and fruit. Farm raised meat and eggs.

What makes this property unique

My property has many special touches. Antiques, himalayan domes, artwork, paintings. Custom built mantle for the propane fireplace. Beautiful bathroom with heated floors and a rainfall showerhead. My property is a "spa like" place where you will feel right at home. You have the option of adding the additional unlimited 2 spa rooms upstairs. No one else will be in the upstairs spa rooms when you book this home.
