About this property

Surrounded by Trees & Walking Distance to Cornell U, Ithaca College & Downtown

This adorable private house is perched up in the trees across the street from Six Mile Creek. It's only a 10 min walk to the downtown Ithaca Commons bars, restaurants and the State Theater, but you are in the woods. Walk to Cornell in 24 min. Enjoy beautiful views through all the windows, and hopefully you will spot the family of deer who live in the back. Three private bedrooms sleep 6 comfortably and 3 more can sleep on the futon sofas in the common space. Local artists are showcased. We have been renting the house out to happy guests for years (search for Tree House in Town Ithaca)
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Our Stay in the Treehouse

We just loved it. It's serene, spacious and clean. We relaxed on the back deck, on the front screened-in porch, and went swimming at the watering hole that's just a short walk away. Communication was exceptional and we would most definitely stay there again. Thank you, Alicia!

A real getaway!

This was such a relaxing place to stay during a busy weekend! We loved watching the deer out back and there was zero street noise. The owner was fantastic! Great communication! The beds were comfortable and everything seemed very clean. I would caution potential guests that the stairs up to the house might be difficult for some people. They are steep and seem to have a greater distance between steps than what is standard. People with mobility issues would have a difficult time getting inside the house.
