Overlooking the village of Groton, in New York's Finger Lakes region, stands the Benn Conger Inn. Originally built in 1921 as a private home for Benn Conger, popular state senator, it became a safe haven for the infamous bootlegger and numbers racketeer Dutch Schultz. The Colonial Revival architecture of the Inn is complimented by a charming Victorian "cottage" located next door. Renovated in 2001, it increases the total number of guest rooms to nine, adding another dimension to the Inn as a destination experience. We are located just 15 minutes from Ithaca, NY or 35 minutes from Syracuse, NY. The inn is the perfect headquarters from which to explore the beauty of the area: Hiking, biking, horse-back riding, golfing, tennis, crosscountry and alpine skiing, hunting, fishing, water sports, wine-tasting, antiquing and a variety of other activities.

This was our second visit to Benn Conger Inn. It is a lovely place to stay if you are planning a visit to the Finger Lakes region. Shelly is a terrific innkeeper. Her breakfasts are always delightful. Her cheerful friendly spirit will bring us back every time.
MoreBenn Conger did not disappoint.The Welthea Marsh suite was exactly as described, very comfortable.Tessa, one of the Innkeepers was very attentive and extremely pleasant.Looking forward to return visit rather than staying at the chain hotels.
MoreI planned an Artist Getaway for nine of my adult students. We stayed at the Ben Conger Inn. The place is luxurious and beautifully maintained. The manager Drew was very helpful in finalizing the details of our trip. He gave a lovely suggestion for a dinner out and it was magnificent. We had 2 catered dinners at the Inn that were incredible. The housekeeper Shelley is outstanding. She catered to all of our needs and was always really helpful. I would highly recommend this bed-and-breakfast.
