About the host
Hosted by Maria Spada
I fell in love with Ithaca and the surrounding area in 2012 and finally decided it was time to make it home. I love to travel and experience different cultures. Hosting as become another love of mine as I am able to share my home so others can experiences this magical place :)
Why they chose this property
Brooktondale is known as a beautiful place to live with a strong sense of community and neighborly love. The Brookton Market Cafe is my favorite gem outside of the local Gorges, Waterfalls, hiking, biking, lakes and wineries. Here you are able to experience a stay in the gorgeous countryside while still having the convenience of being close to the sights.
