Lily Dale Pet Cemetery The Lily Dale Pet Cemetery is a peaceful place in Leolyn Woods honoring beloved animal companions who have crossed to Spirit.

Inspiration Stump Located at the end of the peaceful Leolyn Woods trail, Inspiration Stump is a quiet sanctuary where many feel a heightened connection to spirit. Free mediumship demonstrations are held here twice daily, a tradition dating back to 1898. Mediums offer short messages to those gathered, continuing a long-standing spiritual practice. The Stump itself is a historic tree remnant, believed to sit within a vortex of spiritual energy, and has been a place for practicing and demonstrating mediumship for over a century.

The Fox Cottage The Fox Cottage, the birthplace of Modern Spiritualism was purchased by Mr. B.F. Bartlett and moved to Lily Dale as a matter of preservation and a memorial to Spiritualism and the Fox Sisters. The Cottage was taken apart and shipped across Lake Ontario to Buffalo then trucked to Lily Dale where it was reassembled. Tragically, the cottage burned to the ground in 1955. The ground it sat on in Lily Dale has been turned into a memorial and mediation garden open year round for all visitors. You can find this peaceful place behind the Forest Temple on East Street.
