We love meeting new people and getting reacquainted with old friends and past guests. We are dedicated to insuring you have a relaxing and enjoyable stay. You may come through the door as a guest, but you will leave as a friend.

Our Business

We started our business as a hobby in 2002 when we opened a small (one room!) B & B in Wellsboro, PA.  We appropriately named our endeavor The Empty Nest since we had just recently sent our youngest off to college.  We enjoyed it so much that when an opportunity came up in Canisteo, NY we just couldn't pass it up!  Now, instead of 1 room, we have 3!

Who We Are

"We" are John and Sharron Cox.  Our interest in collecting antiques over the years has inspired our love of old architecture as well.  Nothing else has the appeal of an old house and its history. 

John's passion is going to auctions and bringing home a "bargain" for Sharron to refinish.  Many of the furnishings in our home have been lovingly restored by us.  

We share our home with 2 very active kittens.  Ziggy (orange) and Zeke (black) are litter mates.  They joined our household in July 2010 and their antics have already made quite an impression on our guests.
