Applications are currently being accepted for the 2012 season. As of October 1, some weeks are already filled but we do create waiting lists for each week. You may scroll down this page to the link for an application to stay at the house in 2012.

Fundraising for the UU Denominational House started in October 2007. With the support of several lead givers and over 200 other contributors, we raised almost a million dollars in cash and pledges by the end of 2008. This allowed us to purchase the house without a mortgage and to undertake renovations that increased the number of bedrooms in the house from 4 to 7. The Universalist Convention of NY granted a loan to ensure the house is handicapped accessible.

We have now experienced three successful seasons of room rentals, and have hosted weekly UU teas, discussion groups, and the ministerial “talkbacks” as well. Our patio is a great place to relax for daily visitors and UUs not staying in the house.

Fundraising is continuing and the Chautauqua UU Fellowship has created a Legacy Fund to ensure the long-term financial security of the house.

To support the continued success of the House, you may send a check made out to UUFC, Inc. with UUDH in the memo line, to PO Box 622, Chautauqua, NY 14722 or a donation may be made by credit card or PayPal account here:
