    We had a busy weekend planned and the stress levels were high; until we walked into the Edge of Thyme. The stress was gone, we had the best nights sleep we've had in weeks, the breakfast and conversation were top notch (boy can Frank tell a story!!!), and the Edge of Thyme made our weekend!!!

    A lovely place to relax and enjoy while contemplating. Great spot on the edge of the finger lake region to set out from and return to tour the area.
