A historic Inn, Magnolia Place was brought to life in 1837, as a farm house overlooking beautiful Seneca Lake. Perfectly nestled in the heart of the region's finest vineyards and wineries, between the Finger Lakes wine country and beautiful Lake Seneca, only minutes from Watkins Glen International Raceway and a short drive from Cornell University and local outdoor activities, restaurants and attractions, Magnolia Place provides the perfect balance between modern elegance and historic charm.
