This house is a designated historic landmark, proudly recognized by the town for its deep roots in Buffalo’s history and its connection to the War of 1812. We’re honored to share this special piece of the past with our guests.
Stay just minutes from top destinations: 32 min to Highmark Stadium (Buffalo Bills), 15 min to Buffalo/Niagara Airport, and 45 min to Niagara Falls. We're close to Buffalo’s colleges—ideal for Parent Weekend or student drop-off—and under 30 min from vibrant Downtown Buffalo with theaters, restaurants, and nightlife.
To the east, explore Darien Lake Theme Park (25 min), Akron Falls (15 min), Batavia (30 min), and the Rochester area (60 min). Guests often say they wish they’d stayed longer to enjoy the peaceful home and friendly neighborhood.
In spring, walk to a Saturday farmers market, hike nearby trails, fish the local pond, ride scenic bike paths, or relax at the park just across the street—perfect for families!
Enjoy private access to the house in a quiet, welcoming neighborhood. Upstairs features three comfortable bedrooms for eight to sleep, and two full bathrooms. The main floor includes a spacious dining and living area, a foyer, a half bath, the unique “Rocker Room” (circa 1820), and a charming “Vintage Kitchen” (1950).
All bedrooms feature high-end mattresses—Saatva, Winkbed, and Aireloom—dressed in soft, hypoallergenic sheets, pillows, and blankets. Two full bathrooms are located upstairs, stocked with plenty of towels, toilet paper, hand soap, and body wash.
Master King Bedroom:
Includes a king bed and twin beds, one of which is in a former sewing annex with a built-in 1947 wall ironing board and walk-in closet. The original soft pine floors from the 1860s and vintage 1940s shutters add charm. Shares a hallway bathroom with the Canopy Room.
Rose Room:
Named after my daughter, whose rose artwork decorates the space. Features a queen bed, electric fireplace, and en suite bathroom with new tile and a hand-thrown vessel sink crafted by my husband Jack.
Canopy Room:
Located in the older part of the house, it features exposed beams, a queen canopy bed, antique furniture, and milk glass accents. Once servant quarters in the 1940s, it still has a steep, unused back staircase. Shares a hallway bath with the Master King room. Guests often call it the most romantic room.
The dining/living room is perfect for enjoying takeout or catered meals from 9 nearby restaurants—all within walking distance—offering everything from burgers and pizza to gourmet dishes. A house binder includes menus and recommendations. There’s also a small farm brewery close by, run by my husband!
This kitchen is a true throwback, installed in1947—original cabinetry, brick walls likely from the 1800s, and many vintage items on display and for your use. It includes countertop appliances: a 2-burner induction cooktop, George Foreman Grill, cottage-size fridge, vintage wall oven (from 1955—and still working!), microwave, Keurig (pods provided), coffee pot, toaster, and blender. We provide vintage dishes, mugs, bowls, silverware, wine glasses, and all kinds of coffee and sweeteners. No dishwasher—so please wash what you use. Cleaning supplies and trash bags are provided.
Just beyond the kitchen is the home's original room, with a large fireplace and rocking chairs. The unpainted plaster walls are original. In winter, we’ll prepare your first wood fire for free, using hardwood from our property. A small fee applies for extra fires. We’ll show you how to safely enjoy it when you arrive.
We recently added a Smart TV in the living room. Please remember your own passwords to the streaming services you prefer. Our space invites families to talk over a puzzle, play games and enjoy the area. Several of our guests mentioned they didn't even turn on the TV, but really enjoyed the puzzle on the piano!
Like I said, the property is a work in progress. You might see us in the barn outback, working in there to open a ceramic studio. Currently there are several pieces of pottery in the house that Jack made, some even are for sale. We hope in the summer to offer "Come and Play in Clay...and Stay!" If you want to know the history of this home or know why we named it the Honeyhouse, just ask!
