 ~ ABOUT OUR ECO-RETREAT ~

The Office.

Tranquility Trails is a Eco retreat center located on a private game preserve. It was established on 9-16-2013 in loving memory of my father, Frank Bileti, & friends, Patrick Macumber & Matthew Rutkowski. All having been instrumental in providing me the means to make this endeavor come to fruition.

 

The cabins, tent sites & trails are very private and secluded. Each site has its own gated private entrance. We currently offer 2 cabins, a cottage, 3 tent sites (1 is fully furnished) for our guests to relax and become one with nature. There is 6 miles of groomed, maintained trails and roads for guests to share for hiking and other recreational purposes. The trails are all marked and are approx. 10-15' wide. They range in difficulty. The southern section of the property ascends abruptly from 2050'-2250'. The northern range is less abrupt. Tranquility Trails is nestled within 138 acres of the foothills of the Appalachian  mountains in the Southern tier of Western New York.

 

The Ebb~n~flow site is on 26 private acres that are exclusive to this site. There is a solar powered, heated cabin with 3 stocked ponds, picnic areas with a 16' x 24' pavilion, 2 fire pits (1 w/cooking grate) and several flower, vegetable and herb gardens. The solar powered bath house has a unique outdoor shower with hot water. The ponds are spring fed. The Koi pond is only 25' from the cabin deck & very tranquil! The main pond is stocked with yellow perch, bluegill, Koi & catfish. It has a 5'x12' dock to use with the row raft. There is a small water fall & a sanded beach area to sit back & absorb the distinct sounds and smells of nature. A brook runs across the southern boundary. There are also several trails exclusive to this site.

There is a abundance of wildlife to be observed here year round.  White tail deer, turkey, ruffed grouse, red fox, black bear, wild rabbit, coyote, black & grey squirrel, porcupine, raccoon, pileated woodpeckers, great blue heron, mallards, the occasional bobcat to name a few...

 

It has been my passion & a genuine labor of love to keep this environment as pristine as possible. My ultimate goal is to be able to provide a place for man to be nurtured, where nature & wildlife will thrive, while always striving to keep the environment as pristine & serene as possible. Truly a unique balance. Due to this balance, occupancy is limited. 

 

Tranquility Trails is an ideal place for folks who enjoy secluded, quiet, private places to relax, unwind & become one with nature. Ideal activities would include: hiking, bird watching, wildlife observation, meditation, stargazing etc. No hunting, fishing or foraging allowed. Ample parking & private picnic areas are provided. Small groups are welcome. (Contact us for pricing.)
