Something that touched my heart: + Joe and Roselea's Hospitality. + The kindness of Syracuse fans. Something Good: + Snacks, treats, and breakfast at The Roselea. + The Isabel room is awesome. + Beauty of the Finger Lakes + Adirondacks. Something Funny: Coming all the way to Syracuse to watch Clemson lose and somehow have a blast. Lesson Learned: A #2 ranked Clemson team can lose to an unranked Syracuse team. + Tell your spouse about a different gorge hike before climbing all the stairs in Watkins Glen State Park. Challenges: Seeing everything cool in Upstate NY. Thoughts for the day: Beautiful drive from Syracuse to Geneva and to Watkins Glen State Park along the Finger Lakes wine country. (SO MANY WINERIES!!! SO MANY STEPS!!!), nice drive back through Amish country to Seneca Falls, and back to Syracuse. Yummy pie snacks at The Roselea, interesting dinner theatre (Montana Smith and the Curse of the Golden Crocodile) by ACME MYSTERY COMPANY at the Syracuse Spaghetti Warehouse. Next day, after an awesome breakfast, cool trip to Erie Canal Museum. Back to The Roselea for snacks, pie and a nap, crazy night at the Syracuse/Clemson football game (HOW DID WE LOSE?). Following day after an awesome breakfast again, an Erie Canal cruise in Herkimer, then a drive to Old Forge in Adirondacks to see the beautiful fall foliage, then a pizza dinner from Sal's. Last day, breakfast to go from our awesome hosts, flying back home - can't wait to come back! Felt like home - BETTER THAN HOME!!!    

We approached in trepidation. Within a few minutes we were so pleasantly surprised. Beautiful, everything was just perfect. A wonderful experience.    

Thank you Rose & Joe for a wonderful get-away. your home is lovely - and the food was fantastic! A very warm and relaxing get-away - wish it was longer. If we are ever back in this area - we will definitely love to stay here! Thank you for everything.    

We had a wonderful stay here. Joe and Roselea are wonderful hosts. Room was very comfortable, attention to detail. Breakfast was delicious. All in all very nice place to stay. We will come back.    

The Roselea is a great place to stay. We were here just one night, but will remember this stay for a long time and will come back. Rose and Joe have many great musical instruments in the house, great stories to tell and they are just nice people. Thank you for a great stay and breakfast.
