NO ONE ELSE IS PERMITTED TO BE ON THE PROPERTY DURING YOUR STAY. NO EXCEPTIONS.
***The bedroom, living room, kitchen and front porch all have ceiling fans. This home has a lot of unique treasures, beautiful wooden furniture, artwork and photos of nature.

The infrared sauna, hot tub, electric fireplace in the bedroom and a propane fireplace in the living room add a nice relaxing spa-like charm to this home. This is a great spot for a romantic getaway. A young couple recently got engaged here and the young man described the space as a perfect place to propose. A bit of history. My Home is over 80 years old, located in Burdett, N Y. Thirteen years ago I was attracted to its charm, quirks and location near Seneca Lake.

Much remodeling and restorations were made 5+ years ago by Brian Beaumont, a local craftsman due to some frozen pipes. He restored moldings and completely redid the living room and dining area. The paint color choices were carefully selected to create a warm, cozy and comfortable feeling.

As for the furniture.... My father and stepmother owned a beautiful store in Bartonsville, PA. (Poconos) back in the 70's-90's and sold antique reproduction furniture and many other items of interest. The furniture line was made in Georgia, USA, signed and dated called Habersham Country furniture.

The four poster bed was 1 of 100 due to size and weight. You will recognize other pieces throughout. Dining tables, chests and console are part of the collection. The mirrors were created by my mother and came from a Church in Montreal, Canada.

Artwork and Framed Photos.......The paintings you see were painted by my step-mother, Shirley Epstein who has been showing and selling her work in Stroudsburg, Pa. (Poconos) as part of the Art Community for many years. The Photos were taken by my brother, Jack Ion, who resides in picturesque Erie, Pa. Jack takes great pleasure in photographing Erie and on all his travels. I hope you enjoy the nostalgia and treasures of my Home. Guest access Guests can access the kitchen, living room, bathroom, master bedroom, dining room, the front porch, side deck and a 1/2 an acre yard. Hot tub and Infrared Sauna (in the bedroom) are included in the listing.

The Halo IR-(salt therapy) is the first sauna to offer a synergistic combination of Infrared Saunas and Halotherapy. It was created to engage all 4 senses for a truly transformative experience. TASTE the salty air, SMELL the essential oil, custom blended for our Halo IR FEEL the warmth of the infrared heat as it envelops your body and SEE the changing lights of the medical-grade chromotherapy light waves.

The Himalayan Salt Hand and Foot Detox is a unique, multi-faceted treatment. Individuals will be upstairs in a cozy room with a lovely fireplace, seated comfortably enjoying a mechanical back massage while their hands and feet are warmed on heated, smooth, and gently glowing pink salt domes. The warm setting of the salt allows the body to detoxify by opening up the pores. This is especially helpful for those who suffer from arthritis in the hands and from chronic foot pain. Similar to bathing in the ocean, pulls water from the body and reduces inflammation.

Additional Property Information

Burdett, New York, United States

Burdett is a gem of a farming community and grapes are not the only crops our farmers raise. Our lovely Main Street nestles in among a patchwork of corn, wheat, oat, alfalfa, and hay fields. Cows meander placidly along Logan Road and we are all careful near the dairy farm on County Rt 8 as they occasionally get out into the street there. You’ll quite likely see goats and sheep at some point during your visit and chickens are everywhere these days.

When horsepower really came from horses and wagons dominated the roads, our village supplied urban areas with hay and to this day those gorgeous bales can be seen dotting our neighbors’ fields throughout the summer and fall. All this bucolic charm though does have a price, small by comparison but a few times a year the farmers do need to till manure into their fields. This is an essential part of country living and something you may encounter during your stay just about anywhere in the rural finger lakes. Likewise, my home is situated on the Main Street. It's a sleepy little village but there is traffic.

Nature: This home has a lot of outdoor spaces (decks, patios, lawn, backyard) situated in a natural setting where you may see or come into contact with creatures such as squirrels, spiders, flies, bees, slugs, snails, mice, etc. If you or any of the guests are uncomfortable with natural creatures, this home is not the right choice for you. You will not be reimbursed for issues involving natural creatures, spiderwebs, bird poop, etc.

VERY IMPORTANT: when requesting a booking, please provide the full name of the two people staying on the property. NO ONE ELSE IS PERMITTED TO BE ON THE PROPERTY DURING YOUR STAY. NO EXCEPTIONS.

About the Owner

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 recently 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 life coaching business is taking off and the response to my listing here has been deeply gratifying. My world is rich and full of color and I feel so grateful for this beautiful life.

During your stay
I would like to be there when you arrive to show you how to use the propane fireplace, sauna and hot tub. They are all easy to operate once you know how they work.

If you have questions or need anything, I will be very available by cell phone and messaging. Your happiness and comfort are most important.

INFRARED SAUNA & HOT TUB for 2
The hot tub and sauna were incredible treats.

Christine has created the perfect retreat for a rejuvenating and relaxing stay. From the moment we walked in the door, we felt welcome and at peace. She went above and beyond as a host to make us feel like her home was our home. The hot tub and sauna were incredible treats. Adding the spa package was an immeasurable bonus. She was highly responsive to all messages I sent her. I can’t recommend this retreat enough!

An amazing stay. We are healed and rejuvenated!

Christine is unique among rental hosts. Her personal touches and thoughtfulness in preparing all for her guests goes way beyond what we have generally experienced. Her charcuterie board alone is worth the stay and her communication and local recommendations were the best I have experienced. Her spa things are also amazing. Thank you Christine for an amazing stay. We are healed and rejuvenated!

FULL OASIS EXPERIENCE!!

This is the FULL OASIS EXPERIENCE!! From Christine's fabulous charcuterie plate (seriously - SO GOOD) to the sauna and hot tub -- you will find no other rental like this one.

Charming, local feel....very zen and immaculate. As long as you are able to respect the rules with cleanliness and using the amenities, it'll be the perfect getaway. I can't wait to return to Christine's little slice of heaven... she was very communicative and an absolute delight! Thank you!!

This was our second time staying at Christine’s place and it did not disappoint.

This was our second time staying at Christine’s place and it did not disappoint. It is a spa-like experience in the heart of wine country. We spent the afternoons visiting wineries and the evening relaxing in the hot tub. We will be back again!

This place was comfortable, clean, quiet, and just plain great!

Christine's place was just what we needed for a relaxing anniversary weekend! My wife and I have been together for years, but got married right at the beginning of 2020. This weekend felt like the honeymoon we missed out on due to COVID. This place was comfortable, clean, quiet, and just plain great! Get the extra spa package. The halo room and salt domes were our favorite things! Christine had great recommendations for local things to do and see. We hope to visit again!

Overall this is a perfect romantic getaway for two!

Christine was an amazing host! She went out of the way to set up this lovely charcuterie board filled with beautiful cheese, veggies, and dried fruit. She greeted us with huge smiles and even poured us a glass of local wine to celebrate my first year completion of nursing school!

During our stay we had an impending snow storm and Christine was great and reassured us the snow plowing and shoveling will be taken care of.

We mentioned to Christine that we were avid birders and were looking for some local places to go, she quickly got us in contact with a friend of hers who is also a birder. We were so happy with the recommendations given.

Overall this is a perfect romantic getaway for two! You can tell Christine has the passion for hosting and adds small special touches that really go along way!

Thank you so much Christine!

The perfect getaway we needed

Christine was an amazing host. It was the perfect getaway we needed. I can't express enough how wonderful this rental is. We took advantage of all the spa recommendations, and we were so happy we did. It was a complete reset. The hottub was a wonderful treat to a cold night, and the fireplaces made the environment very cozy. Highly recommend this rental, you will love it.
