This listing does accepts pets! Please refer to our house rules before deciding to bring Fido.

After a short walk you will find our Mercantile store, our Traveler’s trunk boutique and beautiful natural pool for swimming and relaxation. Every child 5 and under, or any non swimmer, must provide their own life jacket when in or around the pond. If any non swimmers are occupying the space without a life-jacket, they will be asked to leave the area.

The natural pool’s beauty is complete with a lovely gazebo, waterfall and our pet Koi! The Koi are always eagerly awaiting their koi treats from our guests. These treats can be purchased for $1 from our small Mercantile store along with horse treats, rabbit treats and bird treats. The mercantile also has snacks, local wine, honey and beer along with camp cooking supplies you may have forgotten. Our fun little travelers trunk boutique has some interesting finds from our travels as well as local homemade items!

In addition to the large natural pool there are swinging tree hammocks, a small children’s playground, a gazebo and plenty of bistro tables.

We border the lush and lovely Hammond Hill State forest. If you love cross country skiing, mountain biking and walks we border You have access to miles of state trails!! The barns and pastures are restricted from guests’ entrance.

Our farm and community:
Scottland Yard community consists of several small clustered homesteads. Each Sunday is ‘Sunday funday’ BBQ at Scottland Yard farm from 2-7pm. Monday-Thursdays from 2-6 we have family as well as guest swimming at Scottland Yard. Guests only on Fridays and Saturdays have use of the natural pool. Our guests that are staying through Sunday or arriving for their 4:00 check-in are more than welcome to join us for this joyful time every Sunday!

There are over 200 wineries in the Fingerlakes Region and many are within an hours drive. The closest one to us is Six Mile Creek Vineyard about 5 miles away. Visit waterfalls or state parks such as Buttermilk Falls, Taughannock, Robert H. Treman, Ithaca Falls.

We really like the idea of the honor system and guests can settle up their purchases via different forms of payment, (venmo, cash or checks) at time of purchase.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this dreamy animal-filled oasis. The setting is so peaceful and happy. Wish we had discovered it before our son's college graduation so we'd have more excuses to come back!

Extremely charming, unique property
Loved the animals and the eclectic collection of items displayed everywhere. Rustic, bohemian chic without pretense. I would highly recommend this property and regret not bringing my younger kids. The shower drain had hair clumps from previous guests, which I removed. Otherwise, wonderful and memorable.

Pictures online misleading, family party happening on property
We paid a premium for the holiday weekend because my daughter was in town and we decided to splurge on something nice for the family. We showed up and there were 28–and no joke the host told us there were 28 grandkids- plus parents and friends all partying right next to our cabin. The listing made it seem like we were going to be alone in a tranquil setting with just our family. That was not the case at all. We thought the cabin would be much larger given the price and the way it looked on vrbo. It’s a cool spot overall— very pretty and lots of cool farm animals. just don’t reserve this for the Fourth of July or any other holiday if you’re expecting privacy.

Gorgeous fall escape
We loved the garden house! It’s really charming, and perfect for an upstate getaway. Our kids loved swimming with koi in the natural pool and feeding the horses. And the setting is just gorgeous. Thank you Duane and Andrea! We loved our stay!
