We stayed at Oliver Phelps for three nights in May 2013. When we checked in, the innkeepers let us know they had just purchased the inn and had been there only a month. That was worrisome at first, as we were counting on them for directions and reservations, etc. Well, not to worry, Bill went out of his way to... More

You can imagine a little trepidation into looking at a stay at a bed and breakfast rather than all the usual at a hotel. Would it provide for my independence, my desire for privacy, the comfort all travelers seek, in, what can be stressful, rather than relaxing. The BBOP has turned out to be a very large part of a...

If you are considering a stay in the Finger Lakes region of NY, I highly recommend a stay at Oliver Phelps B&B in Canadiagua. It is worth it just to spend some time with the owners, Donna and Jack. They are the type of folks that add something to your life, some enrichment.

Jack and Donna are definitely one of the main reasons our stay was so enjoyable. They are warm, generous without being overbearing and nosy, and wonderful cooks. Their breakfasts kept us going the entire day! The house is beautiful, spacious and not as cluttered as some B&B's tend to be. It is very conveniently located, not far from the waterfront... More

We love this place! The inn is so warm and inviting as are the innkeepers Jack and Donna. The house is just so cozy and comfy and our breakfast was excellent! Highly recommend!

This was our first stay here, and we were so glad we came across it! We stayed at this spectacular B&B as part of our Honeymoon tour of the Finger Lakes the week of Oct 21-29. We were greeted so graciously by both Jack and Donna, and they went out of their way to make our stay outstanding. The house... More

This was our second visit to Oliver Phelps since 2005. We were welcomed by Jack and Donna as soon as we arrived. I was surprised that they remembered our first visit! To say that this place is special is an understatement. From the moment you walk through the door you notice the attention to detail in a very comfortable, understated... More

It was a wonderful experience at this B&B under the attentive (but not intrusive) care of Jack & Donna, in their beautiful home. You can walk to the shops downtown (less than a mile), and drive to the park on canandaigua lake(1 1/2 miles). There is ample common space for guest in the formal living room,dinning room and an additional... More
