The location is great—right by the lake with stunning views. The apartment was clean, cozy, and well-equipped with everything we needed. The host was responsive and made sure our stay was comfortable. Highly recommend this spot for a peaceful getaway

We arrived at night. Calyn's instructions made it really easy to find. When Calyn said it was near the start of the Cascadilla Falls trail, I didn't realise we'd wake up to a spoectacular view of a waterfall and bluejays singing in the tree outside. Stunning location. Really easy to walk to downtown for cafes, bars, gorgeous shops, and up the hill to Cornell. We loved the beautiful artwork, comfortable beds and spacious living area. I really hope this place is available when we next come to visit in Ithaca. Calyn answered all our questions promptly. Highly recommended.

Shawn's place was a perfect lakefront retreat! Quick and easy communication. Photos were perfect. Clean and well stocked. Quiet and comfortable. There was a nice beach area, dock area to fish, and a kayak to use. Just a few minutes outside of town. I highly recommend to anyone staying near Ithica that wants to be lakefront.

KimRating, 5 stars6 months ago
A small, cozy apartment with a spectacular view of Lake Seneca. The location was perfect for visiting wineries, breweries and taking in the foliage. We found the apartment to have all that we needed and was neat and clean. Mr. Lester lives above the apartment and he made sure we had all we needed and gave us our privacy. Kimberly was quick to respond whenever we had a question. Although this was a small apartment for the four of us( 2 couples), it was the perfect spot to rest for the next day.

David & Debby are wonderful hosts! We had a cold and rainy weekend for our stay, but their cozy home was just perfect to keep us warm and snug. Comfy beds, squeaky clean, and such a beautiful view. We will definitely be back!

JeffreyRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We had to make a last-minute trip to Ithaca with the family. Melissa confirmed quickly and was available for any questions we had. The place is nicely situated on the lake, and very relaxing and peaceful with nice water views. I'd highly recommend staying here.

Keturah and DaveRating, 5 stars6 months ago
We had a wonderful time in Trumansburg, and the surrounding area, celebrating 40th birthdays of my sister and her husband. The moon on the water and the sun rises were breathtaking! Andy was super helpful and responsive to my many questions-great host! The house was so tastefully decorated and our only regret was not having more time at the house. We loved watching the sunrise on the dock, the stairs made it even more adventurous. Taughannock gorge was beautiful and is a must see! Great time at the wineries too!

We loved our stay on the lake. The house was as described and had everything we needed and more. We enjoyed having use of the kayaks and waking up to beautiful views of the lake. I hope we can stay again!

This is a great location for a weekend spent visiting Ithaca, Cornell, enjoying the Apple Festival, and seeing all the gorges and the waterfalls. The leaves are turning and the fall colors are spectacular. We even went swimming in the chilly lake!

Maxime was great - very polite and attentive host, and the house was perfect for our needs, very well equipped and comfortable. Also a great view of Cayuga lake. The location is ideal for Cornell/Ithaca (so long as you have a car). Highly recommend.
