Who We Are

Hello,

We are Brad & Cait.

Welcome to Fernova, our 24 acres of land located in the heart of the Finger Lakes. We became owners of the property in the summer of 2024, and after exploring and seeing how many ferns were on the property we decided to call it Fernova. We spent the majority of 2025 creating our first tiny house retreat. The Kimberly retreat is named after both our mothers and after the beautiful Kimberly Queen fern. We poured our hearts into this property and truly hope that you love it as much as we do.

Why our guests

LOVED STAYING HERE

Beautiful, quiet retreat about 20 min from both Watkins Glen and Ithaca so not too far from plenty of things to do. The house was great, all of the amenities worked flawlessly and there’s nice little touches that we weren’t expecting (heated floor in the bathroom was nice). Overall great weekend to recharge and see some of the Finger Lakes!

Such a beautiful fall spot to R&R with the hubby. Nothing better than a hot tub in the cool, fall air. Wish we had more time to hit up all the spots that looked like fun around Watkins Glen and Ithaca. The foliage was the perfect backdrop to our time spent here.

My partner and I loved staying here! The sauna and hot tub were phenomenal. Our stay felt luxurious but also private and peaceful.

We fell in love with this tiny home retreat! You can tell how much love and effort went into designing and prepping the Kimberly. It was lovely to stay at an Airbnb that used luxurious finishes, appliances, and furniture, and was thoughtfully decorated and stocked. Some of the extra touches we loved and were surprised to find were the spa slippers, robes, heated bathroom floors, toilet settings and bidet, the hand written note, wine, and coffee supplies. The video guides for the amenities made it so easy to understand and use the sauna, hot tub, and cold plunge. We would HIGHLY recommend to anyone looking for a private, serene escape to book the Kimberly! This was one of our favorite stays ever on Airbnb.

A fabulous stay in a beautiful luxury cabin! Nestled a quiet peaceful woodland setting with enjoyable features like a hot tub, deck, outdoor fireplace, massage mattress, and comfy couch. Loaded with all the amazing amenities and details that you didn’t know you would need. Touches like heated bathroom floor, sauna robes waiting, remote control bedroom blinds add to the obvious features like sauna, hottub, & cold plunge. A perfect space to recharge or celebrate a special occasion. As hosts, Brad and Cait communicated well and we definitely would recommend this cabin for your dream getaway!
