Everything one needs
We went up for a weekend to the Finger Lakes region and to see the 2024 solar eclipse. In early April, it still gets a bit cold at night, but the host made sure the place would be warm, with a heater in every room and an electric blanket for every bed. The place has all the amenities one requires, and the location is fantastic, close enough to major highways but quiet enough for a peaceful getaway. We also enjoyed the vast DVD collection at the place, having a movie night with hot chocolates. We will return again next time we are in the area!

Perfect Cottage
We had a great stay to celebrate my daughter’s birthday and Easter. The cottage is in a great location and has a beautiful view of the lake. Although we didnt need to use a lot of the things the cottage is equipped with everything you need for your stay. From pots, dishes, to garbage bags. The hosts are very accommodating a d accessible. Anytime I needed to contact them they got right back to me. I would definitely stay again and recommend staying there.

Last minute excursion
This is a nice, quiet lakeside cabin. Unfortunately, the weather didn’t get the memo that it was springtime. We spent most of our days exploring the Finger Lakes. One of our favorite finds was Dashers, a pub in the nearby town of Homer. Overall, a great cabin for a quick getaway.

Great place to be away from the hustle bustle of Ithaca
Hosts (who live right next door) were very pleasant and welcoming. Helped us fix our WiFi issue right away and gave us a great dinner recomendation (Dashers in Homer). The house is a little rustic but clean and with a nice updated kitchen area. Just two of us stayed so it was probably a bigger rental than we needed, but nice to have lots of space to relax in. The weather (another rainy weekend!!!) prevented us from using much of the outdoor space/lake.

Our family's summer house is right next door to your rental cottage. You have access to our family's mowed field across the road. Use this field for evening star gazing or daytime athletic activities. We are season ticket holders for the Cortland Repertory Theater just a few minutes walk away, so ask us about play reviews and show times.

Why they chose this property

We recently, fully remodeled this cottage after we purchased it. It became available to us as it adjoins our summer home's north property line. We enjoy the lake so much, and we know you will too!

What makes this property unique

Location, location, and parking. No lengthy walk or, stairs to climb to unload. Pull in, carry in, and start relaxin'.....
