The Hotel Lenhart is a historic lakeside hotel on Chautauqua Lake, located at 20-22 Lakeside Drive in the heart of Bemus Point. The hotel has been a gathering place for generations of visitors and families who return year after year, drawn by the setting, the history, and the view of Bemus Bay from the front veranda.
The hotel is currently undergoing a thoughtful renovation to update the property while preserving what makes it special. In the meantime, three fully appointed five-bedroom guest houses are available for seasonal stays, weekend getaways, or extended visits. Each house includes lake access and puts guests within easy walking distance of the village’s restaurants, shops, and activities.
The Hotel Lenhart is located steps from the village and a short trip from the Chautauqua Institution. For updates on the renovation and reopening timeline, the hotel maintains an active blog at thehotellenhart.com.

The Bemus Point-Stow Ferry has been crossing Chautauqua Lake since 1811. And The Ferry is almost done for the season. ⛵
The Ferry is one of the last cable-guided ferries in the country. Seven minutes across the narrows of Chautauqua Lake connecting two shores that have depended on each other for over two centuries.
For some people a ride on The Ferry is a generational memory. Something their grandparents did and their parents did and now they do with their kids on a summer afternoon. For others it is the first time and the seven minutes feel like stepping into a different era entirely.
Either way The Ferry is FREE 🆓
Just bring a donation to support this piece of living history.
Dogs are welcome 🐾
Special events and midweek crossings can be booked by emailing info@thebemuspointstowferry.com
Running Friday through Sunday Noon to 8 PM through the end of the season. The Ferry closes after Fall Fest weekend in September.
If you have not ridden The Bemus Point-Stow Ferry this summer, Sunday, September 20th is your last chance. 📍
