Robin's Nest: Newly renovated home located on 60 acres of fields & forest.
The Robin's Nest house is one of three rental properties located at Lagom Landing, a retreat center nestled in the Little Finger Lakes and surrounded by Amish neighbors, mysterious gullies, and rolling hills. Guests are welcome to explore the 60 acres of grounds, play ping-pong in the barn, and borrow bikes, snowshoes and cross country skis to explore the area. With a week's notice, we can also host workshops on woodworking and carpentry, gardening, foraging, food preservation, and other skills.
Everything was smooth thanks to great communication from when we rented through checkout. The property was new, clean and comfortable. It was amazing seeing all the stars at night, an incredible bonus.
Absolutely beautiful, quiet, and serene location. Loved hearing the birds singing. Lots of them! The landscape is awesome. Only wish we had known there was no TV in the house. My husband is slightly disabled and missed having a TV. We could have brought one if we had known. Other than that, our stay was very enjoyable and relaxing.
Rock and Laurel moved onto this land in 2009 and built the larger house on the property in 2010-2011. For 10 years we hosted gap-year cohorts of young adults learning hands on skills, and in 2022 began renovating the spaces to host adults of all ages for short-term stays, respite and rest, skill-learning, and spiritual discernment.
We love the rolling hills, the breezes, the birds and animals, and the quiet. We also love our Amish neighbors, who teach us so much in their slower way of life.
When you stay here you enter into a vision of slower time. We most hope that our guests can learn to slow down and rest from whatever is compelling them--expectations, productivity, stress, etc.
