Originally Candlelight Lodge was a prominent home built in 1851 by James Hinkley who owned much of the eastern half of the village of Westfield. Candlelight became a  Lodge in the 20's and since 1986 is the oldest and largest continuously owned Chautauqua County bed and breakfast - a B&B concept long before it became fashionable. Candlelight Lodge is one of the select National Register of Historic Places that is listed individually rather than as part of a wider historic district. As a result, Candlelight Lodge, with a special historic easement for the Captain Storm House, has a position of special importance on the National Register.
