Beautiful property.

We had a wonderful time staying here. Our kids (ages 4 and 6.5) loved having a big yard, woods, and creek to explore, and we loved the peace and quiet and connection with nature. The location was perfect for us - rural, but 7 minutes drive to Trumansburg, 20 minutes to the center of Ithaca, and 20-30 minutes to all the hiking and swimming (and some wineries) we could want!

This was a wonderful house in a perfectly quiet but not too remote location. It was impeccably clean and stocked with beautiful pottery dishes that the owner made. Loved morning coffee on balcony! Beds were comfortable, linens were nice and plentiful. There is quality, well maintained furniture as well as wonderful kitchen. We enjoyed neighboring parks and easy access to Ithaca. We would absolutely do this again!
