Neighboring Watkins Glen in Burdett, NY, Burdett Hill Barn is a fantastic lake-view event venue. This picturesque setting has played host to all kinds of occasions, from family reunions to weddings, and we would love to welcome you and yours to celebrate your new chapter.
Burdett Hill Barn can hold up to 100 guests, so whether you are planning an intimate party or a grand soirée, you can enjoy this property. It can be available to you for the entire weekend, allowing you to gather your nearest and dearest for a rehearsal dinner the evening before, say "I do" on the grounds, and eat, drink, and be merry at your reception in the one spot. The rustic industrial style of the spaces is simply charming, with exposed wooden beams, large windows, and barrel furniture. Overlooking the Seneca Lake, the decks are perfect for cocktail hour and for capturing those cherished photographs. If you wish to be at one with nature as you mark this milestone, a marquee can be placed on the lush landscape. After you have danced your last dance of the night, you may add overnight accommodations and retire to the lower level of the barn and the Glen Eastern Main house. Combined, they have five bedrooms with five-and-a-half bathrooms and sleep up to 14 people comfortably.
Couples who choose Burdett Hill Barn have the luxury of choosing their own catering and bar services, ensuring every detail is to their taste. The team has crafted a list of recommended vendors, so you know you can trust them to make your day even more memorable. They provide some furniture and a basic stereo system, but you are free to decorate the setting as you wish to match your vision.
We also offer 48-hour weekend packages, so you can set up and use the barn from Friday afternoon to Sunday. Contact us for details.

- Tom & JJ SchneiderMain ContactWe purchased the property in 2006 and have since hosted many vacation rental groups. Over time, we finished off the upper and lower barn to create a unique space for weddings, parties, and reunions. With two homes we have in the area we can accommodate close to 25 people overnight and the inside of the barn as a venue will hold about 100 guests. If you add a tent the property can host many more. We invite you to enjoy the Burdett Hill Barn as much as we have over the years. Cheers!

Working with Tom and his team is amazing. The place is in a beautiful setting on the lake. We also found the house next door was invaluable for those who had to travel and kept us ...
all together. Having the use of the game room downstairs from the main event was a big plus for friends and relatives bringing more entertainment and fun for all, especially during down time when we were getting our photographs taken. We highly recommend this location for a great wedding.
