Built in 1919, after being a private home for many years, it now has become, The Rose Petal Inn.  It is located in historic, Geneva, New York, by the shores of Seneca Lake, in the heart of the beautiful Finger Lakes Region.  


As a tribute to Rossana's Grandmother, The Rose Petal Inn was named because of the so many wonderful moments that Rossana spent helping her in the rose gardens she had in London, England.

The Rose Petal Inn is in a quiet neighborhood, steps from downtown Geneva and the gateway to the Seneca Lake Wine Trail, with over 100 wineries, the Finger Lakes Cheese Trails, and some of the most beautiful scenic drives in the country.  It is just a few minutes from Hobart and William Smith Colleges, New York State's Cornell Agricultural Experiment Station (NYSAES), the Waterloo Shopping Outlets, and some of the best lake trout fishing in the country.

Your hosts, Andrew and Rossana Shanklin,  will welcome you to their home, where classic old elegance and style, mixed with modern amenities will ensure your every comfort.   Being with guests coming from around the world, becoming friends and enjoying spending time with them, sharing adventures and stories, is what has always been part of Andrew's and Rossana's lifestyle and careers.
