The Ashland & Vera Guesthouses
at Chautauqua Institution
Both the Ashland and Vera are owned and operated by Julie Ponkow from Buffalo, New York. Julie, her husband Dave, and the four children: Sara, Andrew Jeffrey and Gregory first came to Chautauqua Institution in the mid 1980's. It started with a week long vacation, that turned into two.Soon after, the family began enjoying the nine week season each summer.At the Ashland and Vera, we strive you make your experience truly "Chautauquan". The open porches on each floor are available to all guests for reading, socializing or catching an afternoon snooze. The central locations allow for watching the many visitors stroll past, and often you will find yourself waving to new and old friends.
