Beauty & tranquility awaits you at Ellis Haven guest suite with kitchen & pool

We loved how comfortable and spacious Ellis Haven is. I had the best night’s sleep I have had in years! The bathroom and kitchen were very well stocked. Sherri left notes all around the place explaining how things operate and what to do with garbage, recycling and even composting, all of which were very helpful. The property is beautiful and we found the location very convenient to everything we wanted to do. We love Ithaca because it has a good variety of restaurants, a beautiful lakefront with walking paths, lots of waterfalls, Cornell Botanic Gardens and great hiking opportunities.

My wife and I stayed for three nights in October, 2018, as part of Ithaca's Alumni Weekend. We got to meet Sherri, who was very pleasant and helpful. The lodgings in the basement level of her home were spacious and included everything we needed for a relaxing stay. We look forward to returning.

This is a great spot in Ithaca! Only a few miles away from downtown. The space was lovely, very clean and comfortable! Would definitely stay again.

I was so glad to find this place! My husband and I stayed here for 5 nights in August, 2018. The location was perfect for visiting our Cornell student and seeing the sights. I liked that the home was in a quiet, rural area, yet only 10 minutes and an easy drive to downtown Ithaca. The yard is beautiful and well-manicured. We walked around the yard admiring the flower beds, garden and fruit trees and enjoyed the solar-heated pool one day. The apartment was very clean and comfortable. The owners went above and beyond with all of the supplies provided in the kitchen - dish soap, kitchen paper goods, coffee and teas, filters, coffee creamers and sugars, olive oil and fresh garden flowers on the kitchen table. We cooked most of our meals and we had everything we needed. The bathroom was also well-stocked with absolutely everything - soaps, shampoo and conditioner, toilet paper and even bandaids. It felt like home. The bed and bedding were very comfortable. Even though it was August and 90' outside for a few days, the apartment stayed pretty cool. We used a fan to blow in cool air in the evening and mornings and didn't need to make use of the air conditioning. It was obvious that the owners put a lot of thought and care into their property. Communication with Sherri and Mike was prompt, thoughtful, easy and professional. We'd love to stay again.

The property is exactly as described and centrally located to all of the surrounding venues. Very clean with everything you need to enjoy your stay. Sherri and Mike are the most gracious hosts and very responsive to any requests. The grounds are stunning.
