Where Past welcomes Presence

Built in the 1800's as a General Store and Post Office, with living quarters for the merchant and his family, the property is an authentic homage to America's roots. The historic farmhouse is warm and welcoming with tall ceilings, wood floors and yes, ship lap along with many original architectural details. What appears to be a small barn on the property actually has a fascinating history as an ice house. All sitting sweetly on more than an acre of land with views of the surrounding hillside and outdoor spaces to sit and relax or play.

My name is Loretta and I am the sole proprietor of Changing Times. Born and raised on Long Island, but spent summers upstate on my grandparents farm and knew one day this is where I'd put down roots.  The property was purchased in 2006 from Liz and Claude Allen who  had converted it to a Bed and Breakfast in 1992 named The Taghkanic Creek  B&B and operated an Antique Store in the barn. After two years of renovations Changing Times opened in May of 2008 and has been welcoming visitors ever since.

Times do change and so have we. The onslaught to the area of AirBNBs and Short Term Rentals forced most of the real B&Bs, Inns and traditional lodging out of business. Thankfully our convenient location, amazing reviews and strong repeat guests helped us survive. Rest assured when you book with us you are supporting an actual woman owned small business.  We are committed to ensuring you enjoy a great stay and leave with memories to treasure for years to come.
