We searched for winter’s coziest retreat, so you don’t have to. Meet The Lake House on Canandaigua, a MICHELIN Guide recommended resort nestled in the heart of New York’s Finger Lakes.

Picture luxurious lakefront accommodations, fine dining, a hot tub + heated pool with panoramic views, plus a world-class spa and Nordic barrel saunas. For outdoor enthusiasts, there’s plenty of skiing + other adventures nearby.

Catch the vibe for this hotel on Instagram or online. Pro tip: Use code WINTER to save 20% off a two-night stay, or 25% off three or more nights.

The painting is in the shape of an oval with two overlaid gold and navy blue banners below the bottom rim of the oval; the first, outer layer of the oval includes the text, "My Faire Lady" and a wreath of greenery; the interier oval includes encompassing greenery over a red background on the top section and a green background on the bottom section; a white unicorn, central to the emblem, rears its front legs upward, and a woman wearing a navy blue dress with red and gold accent + a gold hood sits atop the unicorn, weilding an upward sword.
