Vacation posted by Benn Conger Inn

Spend three nights at the historic Benn Conger Inn in the New York Finger Lakes region. Located on 18 rolling acres in just outside of Ithaca and featuring Colonial Revival architecture, the Benn Conger Home was the private residence of Senator Benn Conger and then a safe haven for the infamous bootlegger Dutch Schultz. Benn Conger Inn is close to many of the most popular attractions in the Finger Lakes region: minutes from downtown Ithaca, scenic Cayuga Lake, and internationally known wineries and breweries.

INCLUDES:
- 3 nights in the Dempsey House
- Breakfast each day

The Dempsey House is a charming Victorian home situated next to the Benn Conger Home. The house has six spacious luxury rooms and suites. Like the Benn Conger Home, the Dempsey House accommodations feature period and antique furnishings, fine linens, and all essential amenities. Each room also includes a cozy fireplace and a jetted tub or jacuzzi.


Reviews of Benn Conger Inn
"Elegant and charming place! We stayed at this place during our visit to Ithaca. Shelly and Drew are wonderful hosts. Really quiet at night, we have to turn on the rain soundtrack for our sleep." - Pete U.


"Great place to stay if visiting the finger lakes or Ithaca area. We stayed in the 1921 room which was cozy and had everything. TV equipped with Roku with Netflix, Hulu, Disney+, etc. Shelly and Drew were very hospitable and welcoming. Breakfast made to order every morning was delicious. Highly recommend." - Ahmed M.
