Magical lakefront treehouse, minutes to downtown

A magical treehouse perched over its own gorge on Cayuga Lake. This place is special! There’s a giant porch wrapped around a 300-year oak tree and a lakeside tea house that can serve as an extra bedroom. There’s a dock, fire pit, room for yard games by the water, plenty of outdoor seating on the porch, by the lake, or on the dock. All of this is minutes from downtown Ithaca, Cornell, and Taughannock Falls state park. It’s also a great base to explore the Finger Lakes wine region.

Farmstay Scottland Yard- Queen's Quarter's

4.93 out of 5 average rating, 70 reviews1 month ago

We had a great time at Scottland Yard! The Queen’s Quarters was great for our family. They allowed us to bring our dogs and had food and water bowls and old towels for our dogs to lay on. We especially loved the visit from the peacocks each morning! Thank you Scotts!

4.8 out of 5 average rating, 15 reviews21 months ago

Ramsey was an excellent host, very responsive and considerate. We lived in Interlaken for 20 years and came back for the weekend with the whole family and staying at Ramsey’s cottage felt like we were right back at home. Highly recommend this cottage to anyone who wants to wake up to peaceful mornings on the lake, close access to wineries and breweries, and a few mile drive into downtown Trumansburg!

Cottage Atwater - Ithaca and Aurora

4.92 out of 5 average rating, 50 reviews32 months ago

Superb location, privacy; the house was meticulously clean. Communication with the host was instantaneous, check in was flawless. The house is on a beautiful lake, secluded area, semi-private driveway leading to the house - doubles as a beautiful walking path by the lake; 30 min driving distance from Ithaca/Cornell/restaurants. Friendly community (no unleashed dogs, no loud music, etc) Completely stocked kitchen (including selection of coffee and teas), books, video games, painting supplies- rain or shine everyone was entertained. The orientation of the house is great - beautiful sunsets, the lake is viewed from all rooms. Real gem!

Sunset Lake House

4.86 out of 5 average rating, 50 reviews18 months ago

Cindy’s own description of their space didn’t do it justice. It was even nicer than described and an even more beautiful spot than portrayed in her pictures! Location was wonderful. Very central to our stay as we attended our nephew’s wedding festivities. Waterfront location was spectacular and we got lucky with the weather, which called for rain all weekend, but never truly came. We’ll stay again if ever headed for Ithaca!

Cayuga Lake Retreat with Level Lake Front

5 out of 5 average rating, 18 reviews8 months ago

This is a cute 1940s cabin right by the lake. It's not fancy, but it's right by the lake and sheltered by big old trees. It's also well equipped with kitchen utensils and kindling for the firepit, plus kayaks and life vests and pretty much everything we wanted for an outdoor weekend. I wish more lake houses were still like this! Nearby Milliken Station coal power plant shut down in 2019, so the railroad tracks for the coal deliveries are grown over with wildflowers and it's quite picturesque. Jenny notes that the water is not considered potable, however (related?), so make sure you bring drinking water! We had a fun time visiting Bright Leaf Vineyard, Aurora Shoe Co, and Aurora Brewing, and wandering around the town of Aurora (restored by the founder of American Girl Dolls), even though her alma mater Wells College is closing.

Tiny Lake House Getaway!

4.77 out of 5 average rating, 137 reviews1 month ago

For the two of us; healthy and mobile in our early sixties, we enjoyed the Tiny House's situation and lay out, it's steep baker's ladder up to the sleeping loft, the wooden steps from the road parking to the few steps over the Freight railway tracks to access the side door, and the accessibility to the front deck overlooking the pebbly Lake beach. We enjoyed the fun character and appreciated all the amenities of the house. Being bird enthusiasts we really appreciated the closeness to the Lake, it's birdlife, the views and the changing light and weather over the lake. it's a great situation. Ithaca town was, for us, accessible either by foot or by car. And we look forward to a future visit.

Cottage directly on Cayuga Lake

4.6 out of 5 average rating, 95 reviews9 months ago

Can’t beat this location right on Lake Cayuga, still close to downtown Ithaca, wineries, and hiking! House is exactly as advertised, a peaceful cottage on the lake. Yes there are 85 steps, and they are a lot, but worth it for the lake views! Beth was very responsive and helped us out right away with a neighbor’s dog barking at night. Thanks Beth for a great stay!!

5 out of 5 average rating, 35 reviews7 months ago

WE LOVED THE PLACE! Carrie and John were amazing hosts and their wonderful RV elevated our experience and memories that my boyfriend and I will be sure to cherish for a lifetime. For those of you wondering, a bathroom (toilet and shower stall) is located in the RV, however we preferred their bathhouse which was within easy walking distance. Kitchen is fully equipped with basic necessities such as utensils, pots, basic condiments etc. We appreciated the availability of an outdoor gas grill and gas stove that were fully functional. Also it's worthy mentioning there is a fire pit fully stacked with an ample amount of firewood [and a hilly-billy pool which we didn't get to enjoy due to weather]. For those who are planning on a day trip for Ithaca's beautiful scenery, the Buttermilk Falls State Park is about 20 minutes drive; and 15 minutes drive to the nearest Dollar General store should there be any last minute shopping. Overall, Carrie and John were very responsive and accommodating, hel
