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

Every detail was perfect! We loved the small details like the embroidered robes, face masks and shower steamers, bottle of wine, spa shoes, and all the toiletries available. A lot of thought and care has gone into making this place a real retreat. We loved it!

Really enjoyed our stay here. The property is very quiet and private. The sauna, hot tub, and cold plunge are all great and easy to use. This place has all the amenities you could want for a quiet and peaceful getaway. There’s lots of active wildlife in the area. Its location is great as it’s about halfway between Watkins Glen and Ithica.

What a beautiful spot! Caitlin's tiny house is gorgeous and luxurious. She thought of everything. The best (and sharpest!) kitchen knives I've come across in an AirBnb! And waking up to that view--wow. We'd love to come back.

I was blown away by this property. immaculate. appropriate technology throughout. clear operating instructions of all amenities. hot tub and cold plunge were perfect for recovery after long hikes. complete with luxurious robes and slides. perfect size for a couple for a reconnect/recharge stay. private and secluded yet 20 - 25 minutes away from everything. very gracious hosts. responded to questions within minutes. heated toilet seat and automatic flush!!! yes, thank you very much. not a cobweb hanging from the eaves outside. not a crumb in any drawer. it felt brand new throughout. tastefully decorated. did I say it was immaculate! plus a bottle of wine and some treats waiting for us when we arrived. we brought breakfast and dinner food with us to cook there. lunches were on the hiking trail or a quick charcuterie board after hiking before going to a winery or 3. our faves were Finger Lakes Distillery, Thirsty Owl, and Hosmer. we will stay here again and again! thank you Caitlin!!!!!

This beautiful tiny home was so nice and clean it felt like we were the first people to ever stay there. The amenities were amazing and the area was so pretty and peaceful. Super responsive hosts that obviously were very thoughtful when building their tiny home. I really hope to be able to stay here again in the future. It is perfect for a romantic couple stay!
