- From Rt. 252 in Pittsford

- For the scenic route take I-390S to Geneseo, then Rt. 20A East all the way to 64
Once on Rt. 64 you head South going past Bristol Mountain., through Bristol Springs (about 3 mi. past Bristol Mountain), and watch for West Gannett Hill Road on your right.

You will come to one more turn off to the right which is the driveway to the House and Observatory. When you get to the "Y" go left to the House. Do not drive up to the observatory.
