Who are We?

We’re a local family raising our four kids here in the village of Skaneateles—and it’s long been a dream of ours to bring a boutique motel like The Gate to life. Before settling down, we traveled the world together, drawn to places where the hospitality was genuine and the experience felt personal. That’s the kind of stay we now hope to offer you.

Whether you're a returning guest or visiting for the first time, our vision is to help you experience Skaneateles at its best. This region is rich with natural beauty, kind people, and moments that become lifelong memories. At the eastern gateway to the Finger Lakes, The Gate is your place to stay thoughtfully and explore freely.
