This rental was the full package. Beautiful home and furnishings, great location, great recommendations about places to go and restaurants to go to as well as a super responsive hostess who went above and beyond to ensure that our stay was perfect!

We had a wonderful stay while in Ithaca for a wedding. The house is beautiful and comfortable; quiet and secluded, yet 12 minutes from Cornell. We did not want to leave! We enjoyed the Farmers Market Saturday morning, Ithaca Falls and Ithaca Bakery Sunday morning. We hope to come back for a longer stay.

This is by far the best vacation rental that my family and I have ever enjoyed. The location is close to everything, but completely peaceful and private. The house itself is immaculate. It is spacious enough for a large family gathering and the hosts have absolutely thought of everything. We will definitely look to stay again.

We had a wonderful stay at this welcoming retreat! The house was perfect for our family—spacious, comfortable, and thoughtfully equipped with a well-stocked kitchen and multiple family rooms for relaxing together. The location was ideal for visiting Cornell, Ithaca College, and Cayuga Lake, and we especially enjoyed spending time on the back deck. Laurie was fantastic to work with—easy to communicate with and incredibly attentive. We would absolutely stay here again!

Wedding
I would rate the house and contents above a 5 star. We felt at home as soon as we walked in the door. Our family was in Ithaca for a wedding. We also explored the area. The house was a short distance from everything we wanted to do. Laurie was also an amazing host.

Perfect Family Weekend in a Welcoming Home
We stayed at Laurie’s place in Ithaca over the July 4th long weekend and had a truly wonderful experience. The property is perfectly located near the Ithaca Mall, and it was spotless, cozy, and exceptionally well-maintained. We were even treated to several deer sightings during our stay, which added such a peaceful, nature-filled charm to the trip.Laurie went above and beyond with thoughtful touches—like leaving popcorn snacks on the counter, which our family enjoyed. We also discovered a cornhole set in the garage and had a great time playing together in the mornings before heading out for the day. The kitchen was another highlight: well-stocked and thoughtfully arranged, making it easy to settle in and feel at home.We truly appreciated the care Laurie put into every detail. She was a gracious and attentive host, and we’re grateful for the warm, welcoming atmosphere she created. We left with wonderful memories and would absolutely stay again!
