The Universal Friend Bed and Breakfast sits high on a hill near the north end of Keuka Lake, in the heart of the Finger Lakes—one of New York's wine regions. Constructed in the 1830s, Universal Friend Bed & Breakfast is named for the earliest settler of the area—Jemima Wilkinson. Known as the 'Public Universal Friend,' Jemima Wilkinson was the first American woman to form a religious order.
