Stop and stay awhile

We are Seth and Lynn Thibault. We live locally, raising our four children in the village of Skaneateles, and it's always been a dream to run a successful boutique motel. Before kids, we traveled around the world. We experienced amazing hospitality everywhere we went and visited so many communities that embraced us with warmth and curiosity. Now, we hope to create a similar experience for visitors to Skaneateles. Whether you are a regular, familiar with the area, or a first-time explorer, our vision is to help you make the most of your time with us and discover all the beauty of this area. Rich in natural wonders, good people, and memory-making moments, Skaneateles and The Gate await you at the eastern gateway to the Finger Lakes.
