The property features:
- King-size master bedroom with luxury shower and soaking bathtub
- Main floor bedroom/living room with plush, Queen-size sofa bed, sectional couch with full-size pullout bed, a wide-screen TV and its own full bathroom
- Sitting room/kitchen with wood burning stove, modern appliances, and coffee bar
- Lower level is a full apartment with King-size bedroom, full bath, living room with widescreen TV and plush couches, and Kitchenette! (No-step entrance)
- Wood-stove heated Yoga studio with mats and other yoga equipment
- Expansive courtyard with gas grill and firepit for entertaining and playing pickleball, cornhole or other activities

The Comfort Road Cabin is designed with relaxation and entertaining in mind. The rich wood interior, a warm fire in the woodburning stove, and quality furnishing sooth the tired traveler.

The Other Amenities

- Smart lock for easy entrance
- Standard kitchen appliances, cookware, dinnerware, glassware

The cabin is modeled after traditional European lodges and sits atop a hill on the smooth-graveled Comfort Road. Remote enough to be a true retreat, it is still under 20 minutes away from Downtown Ithaca Commons and shopping. Ithaca College is a short 10-12 minute drive and Cornell is within easy driving distance as well. Ithaca airport is 30 minutes away. Natural attractions are Jennings Pond, Buttermilk Falls, and Robert H Treman State Park with its amazing natural swimming hole and falls. The stretch of Comfort road in front of the chalet is part of the Finger Lakes trail system and leads to a trail head that goes into Danby State Forest.
Note: The cabin is surrounded by nature and as a result "nature" occasionally get inside. This is part of country living. We perform regular maintenance and cleaning to minimize the occurrence.
Rental insurance: We require a security deposit or low cost insurance, which will be added during your transaction. This protects our home and belongings and helps us keep our rates low. If you choose to put down the security deposit, it will be refunded back to your credit card 14 days after your stay completes. The insurance is non-refundable.

About the host
Hosted by Brad B and Emily P
We are best friends, parents, professionals, and nature explorers from New Jersey. We fell in love with the Finger Lakes Region while our oldest attended college. Every trip reveals some new natural treasure. We hope you discover your own beauty.
Why they chose this property
Sitting in Adirondack chairs in the courtyard with our morning coffee while watching the poplar leaves "sparkle" in the wind.
What makes this property unique
The cabin has been referred to as Narnia by friends. The simple, unassuming log structure is deceptively small from the outside, but when inside it opens up and feels much larger. You'll be immediately taken in by the rich wood tones and exotic burled wood finishings. The inside of the home feels like the woods that surrounds it.
