Our stay was absolutely outstanding. From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by how beautiful, clean, and well-maintained the property was. The home was spacious, comfortable, and thoughtfully equipped with everything we needed for a relaxing and enjoyable stay.The location was perfect; peaceful and private while still being conveniently close to Cornell’s campus and Ithaca’s attractions. We especially loved waking up to the beautiful surroundings and spending our evenings unwinding in such a serene setting.Every detail of the home made us feel welcome, and it was clear that the host takes great pride in providing an exceptional guest experience. Communication was easy, and everything exceeded our expectations. We created wonderful memories here and would gladly return for another stay.
