Welcome to
the
Gansevoort House Inn &
Galleries
he
Gansevoort House Inn in the foothills of the Adirondack Park,
is midway between Albany and Syracuse at exit 29A on the New
York Interstate Highway 90. It is in Herkimer County of the
Central New York Leatherstocking Region. Guests can walk along
the Erie Canal to lift lock #17 from our
inn.
This 18 room wood-framehouse was built in 1889 by the
owners of the Gilbert Knitting Mill and the Snyder Bicycle
Factory during the hey-day of the Little Falls Mercantile Era.
It has 3 living salons with Dorian columns, high ceilings,
fireplace, a formal dining room, solarium, and modern kitchen.
A patio door opens on to a sun deck from the solarium. The
deck is shaded by many trees surrounding it forming a leafy
umbrella. Below is a patio with a fountain and herb garden
where guest can sit. A path leads to the carriage house which
has a family guest suite. Next to the entrance is the parking
area.
The house is furnished with antiques and art. Hosts, Linda
and Oscar Stivala are both artists and musicians. Many of the
paintings throughout the property are by them. They enjoy
playing music if requested! Their galleries of art and books
are located in historic Canal Place which is a short walk from
the house. All of these features serve to make the Gansevoort
house one of the important homes of the region.
There are three guest rooms in the main house and the
carriage house is a cozy cottage with two levels. Breakfast
includes juice, a fruit dish, breakfast entree prepared with
herbs from the garden and fresh baked muffins, coffee, or tea.
Special dietary needs can be accommodated.
