Maxwell Creek Inn is nestled
on six acres surrounded by a woodland wildlife preserve and apple orchards
on the south shore of Lake Ontario, halfway between Rochester and Syracuse.
Peaceful and relaxing, this tranquil setting offers a piece of heaven
on earth.
Built in 1846 by William
Swales for his daughter Elizabeth as a wedding gift, the historic Cobblestone
House was once on the Underground Railroad. Schooners sailed into Maxwell
Bay to trade wheat for the flour that was made at the gristmill that
still stands on the property since 1794. The Private Cobblestone Carriage House was built in 1840 and is available for rent.
Apple orchards, walking trails to the lake, outdoor grills and picnic tables are on the
premises. The property boasts a quarter-mile of prime private
shoreline fishing on the famous Maxwell Creek, also perfect for canoeing and kayaking.
Accommodations - Our Cobblestone Carriage House has two efficiency suites with private baths and kitchenettes. A full breakfast is served by candlelight in a rustic wood-paneled dining room by a unique fireplace in the main house.
