Such a lovely cabin, sort of remote, but close to restaurants and activities (especially the multiple Falls in the area). We loved sitting out on the deck in the mornings and evenings watching the deer come to browse. Watching the chipmunks play each day was very entertaining. The cabin was clean and we didn't see any inside bugs at all! The kitchen had everything we could possibly need, and the bed was huge and very comfortable. Would definitely stay here again!

The cabin was nicely presented and equipped with everything we needed. We loved the isolated feeling, although it was only a short drive to the nearest village and shop. Contacting the owner to obtain access when we arrived was a little difficult because cell reception is poor there (the WiFi is excellent however).

Great!

It was a great place to stay and close to state parks. ( Watkins Glen, Buttermilk Falls, Robert Treman, and Taughannock. It had most main essentials for basic cooking, but only gave us 2 washcloths for family of 5. Nice grill and firepit to enjoy. Very clean and good communication from the hosts. Very pretty secluded area but only 20 minutes away from a town with a store or restaurant.

a very convenient location

It's very quietly located, but close to all locations we were visiting. The cabin is clean and pleasant. It can use better kitchen supplies including pots, pans and knives for people who need to cook. The pond is a walk, and could be missed if you don't walk all the way in the trail. Overall, we loved our stay.

This was a GREAT alternative to a motel!

We wanted to visit Watkins Glen and Ithica for a weekend getaway, and this cabin was perfectly located between them! Everything was clean, well-maintained, and lovely. It even had everything needed to make our own meals and our morning coffee. The wifi is a lifesaver if you need to stay on the grid as well. We loved it!
