Great stay for our 10 year old and dog. Right on the lake. Host was available at all times. Spiral Staircase to get up to the bedrooms but the dog was fine downstairs. Great location near Ithica and plenty of hiking trails and restaurants. We had an awesome April weekend.
A perfect stay, views even better than the pictures, home had everything I needed, host very attentive, loved loved loved our stay, can’t wait to go back

It was a pleasure hosting you and you are more than welcome back anytime!
We had the most wonderful experience at this beautiful Lake House. Randall was an excellent and communicative host, and made the entire process go smoothly, from check-in to check-out. The house was exactly as described, and sunrise over the Lake was a sight to behold. The house was well-stocked with anything you could need and then some. The hot tub was immaculately clean and the perfect temperature, as it got chilly at night. Unfortunately we didn't have a chance to use the kayaks, as the Lake had some flooding and debris that made it feel a little risky. The spiral staircase is a bit narrow, but exactly as pictured and described in the ad. The driveway is a bit steep, and might be difficult to manage if you have a larger SUV or truck. The house is very close to downtown Ithaca, local wineries, and parks. Overall, a great house in a great area. I imagine it's even more beautiful in the summer.
The lake house was beautiful, clean, and conveniently located to restaurants. The host gave great directions and details for check in and out, making the whole process easy. Great mini vacation for us!
The house had more than I’ve ever had in any Vrbo- well equipped kitchen with everything possible, adequate furniture and lighting(so often I can’t read at night because of no side light or table), tissues, soaps, towels all more than needed. Such a great location for Ithaca based adventures. Great kayaking. Would gladly stay again
We all had an amazing time. The location was bucolic, right on the lake. We were there for our daughter’s graduation weekend at Ithaca College. It was conveniently located close to the campus and the commons. The place was clean & the hot tub was a fun bonus! Randall was very responsive w/any questions I had. We highly recommend staying here and we will be back!
Love this place. Beautiful home and location. On lake, close to town, falls, winery, brewery; great walking and hiking trails a walk from house. I look forward to another visit.

Mark and his family were great guests. I would welcome them back anytime!
We enjoyed our stay here. The house is beautiful with a well stocked kitchen for cooking, great hot tub, and beautiful lake views. You’re only minutes from everything in the Ithaca area while still being out of the city. The Blackstone rail to trail is also just across the road.
From the first moment, this place was great. It's right on the lake with just lovely views, great environs (great bird watching, excellent landscaping/gardening, and it's not too far from town. Very relaxed atmosphere that fits the Ithaca vibe well. Excellent for a quiet weekend with friends and family. Multiple rooms with fresh cut flower arrangements were a really lovely touch (yes, I noticed!). Excellent, thorough communication in advance too. Thank you!!
I can't say enough about Randall and the home. It had everything we needed to feel like we were at our own house. The house was very clean, had every amenity we could need, the hot tub was hot, the cabinets were stocked. Waking up to the beautiful view of the lake was a bonus. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for an Ithaca getaway!!

Thank you, Steven! You and your family are more than welcome to return in the future. Have a great holiday!
Randall is such an amazing host. This property is incredible. The location and views are amazing. Randall was so accommodating, I was staying here during my wedding weekend and he did everything to make it an incredible experience. We will definitely be back!
This is a lovely place, with beautiful views and a comfortable vibe. The hot tub was lovely, and in warmer weather the access to the lake would’ve been awesome. It’s a perfect location, very close to Ithaca but removed enough to feel like you’re in nature. The spiral staircase was fun for us but do be warned it is a little tricky if someone has trouble with mobility, or is a small child. We really loved our stay and would definitely stay again!
