Built as a vacation home in 1890 by S.D. Styles of New York City, this wonderful old home has survived and maintained its proud tradition to grace and hospitality.

In the 19th century Richfield Springs was a resort and spa haven for the rich and prominent drawn here to drink, inhale, and bathe in the sulpher springs, known as the "Medicine Waters" to cure all ills.


Summerwind, our Queen Ann Victorian, boasts 6,000 sq.ft. with 19 rooms set on three acres of rolling lawn, and stands proudly visible on Route 20. A period wrap around porch invites you to relax perhaps with morning coffee or enjoy the evening sunset.

Our inviting downstairs parlors are always accessible to our guests.





Overnight guests can relax in one of five bedrooms, and enjoy our wholesome breakfast specialties in the formal dining room, which might include fresh brewed coffee, chilled juice, fresh fruit, thick slices of homemade cinnamon-raisin french toast with pure NY State maple syrup, pecan belgian waffles, omelets with spinach and feta cheese, artichoke quiche, or toast with hazelnut butter.



You may also consider your next bridal or baby shower at Summerwind amidst the warmth of our historic victorian splendor.

Our accommodations are also available for retreats and bicycle group tours and trails.


Our location is within a short drive to Cooperstown's Baseball Hall of Fame, Glimmerglass Opera House, Holy Trinity Russian Monastary, and Madison Bouckville Antique Fair.


Summerwind is surrounded by the beauty of Upstate New York's Central Leatherstocking Area.
