Create your dream wedding ceremony and reception anywhere on our  45 acres of secluded Old English style grounds, just minutes from Canandaigua Lake.

Travel down the long magnificent tree-lined driveway, over the stone bridge to our enchanting 1810 European style stone mansion. The Mansion and its grand extensive perennial gardens, large tree shaded lawns and lovely panoramic views... is truly a masterpiece of character. With the combination of outdoor beauty, lush gardens, and the private, serene ambiance makes it an ideal venue for both the ceremony and the festivities. Our accommodations offer a luxurious and relaxing haven for you and your loved ones to unwind before & after the celebration. You'll have the freedom to choose any location that speaks to your heart for your wedding ceremony, ensuring that every moment is infused with your unique love story. That's why we provide the flexibility for you to bring in your own vendors, ie. photographers, caterer, music, etc., to curate the perfect experience for you and your loved ones. This level of freedom allows you to create a truly personal celebration that embodies your unique style and taste.

Enjoy the exclusive use of the mansion for your weekend celebrations or an extended stay. You can have small and intimate, or celebrate with 250+ of your closest friends and family. Do it All ​…with a rehearsal dinner, ceremony, reception and a 2 night stay. No pressure, no deadlines, just relax and take it all in…Whether it's picnic style, country, or it's all out formal, it's a very private, secluded and relaxed setting. (No hotel guests, golfers, boaters or strangers walking by and gawking...)  

The Mansion captures the English style beauty and charm with its inviting foyer, its beamed ceilings, wide planked floors, winding staircase and glass-enclosed sunroom porches that overlook the original stone wall Rockery. There are 9 fireplaces, both gas & wood burning, that make the inside warm and inviting. Oriental rugs and museum-quality furniture highlight the walnut and mahogany inlays and 16-inch floorboards. Paintings and antique pictures decorate the walls.  The Inn’s seven guest bedrooms exhibit distinct characteristics and details that make them all different. All with king or queen beds, all uniquely named for the characteristics they embody. Each has a personal bathroom, fireplace, and furniture that echoes the classic taste and tradition that was established more than two centuries ago. You’ll have full use of the mansion, including the kitchen and dining areas with china & glassware, sleeping for up to 15 people, with central A/C and Wi-Fi throughout. The Morgan Samuels Inn & Venue is the perfect place to celebrate your special day.

    … I wanted something intimate & unique and the Morgan Samuel's Inn gave that to us. We also loved that we had the mansion all to ourselves to have family from out of town stay with us. Now let's talk about the grounds, simple gorgeous anytime of the year…..The charm is endless and truly one of a kind property. 10 out of 10 experience, I would recommend this venue for any event!”

  • "It was a perfect venue for a perfect day!"

    The Morgan Samuels Inn was perfect for my daughter's family-only micro-wedding! It was absolutely beautiful inside and out. There were so many possible spots to hold the wedding ceremony that it was difficult to choose one. They were all so beautiful…The night before we all went out to the fire pit and made s'mores…She has beautiful dishes and linens to choose from and did much of the behind-the-scenes work for us so we could enjoy our day. There are so many wonderful spaces inside the house to congregate with everyone. It was a perfect venue for a perfect day!
