Family-friendly vacation rentals in Tompkins County

While the access road is not for the faint of heart and more closets/clothing storage is needed, the cabin was very clean, well-stocked and organized. There were plenty of movies to choose from and a big firepit to enjoy. The property manager, Mike, was very responsive, knowledgeable and helpful. All in all, the cabin is a lovely place to spend a few days relaxing and enjoying the incredible view.

Beautiful location, so convenient for visiting the wineries. There is so much to do in the area. Being right on the water is amazing. You can watch the sunrise ..it’s really a magnificent view from the upstairs bedroom. This place has everything you need. We enjoyed sitting on the dock and the hot tub. The parking is above the home so you have to walk down to the home. Inside there is a spiral staircase (you can see in the photos) to the bedrooms..so if you have any mobility issues this may be an issue. This is a lovely quiet place to unwind and relax. I highly recommend

We had a great time a Merry's place. Beautiful, old house, but very well kept. We walked into Geneva several times ; less than a mile walk. Hot tub was great, as was the propane fireplace. Just so comfortable and welcoming. We really loved the old house, and Merry was super accommodating. Great visit!!

Third time we’ve stayed here and will again! Bucolic surroundings. Halfway between Ithaca and Trumansburg, we find it very convenient to everything. The property is well maintained and David is a fantastic host. We love all the little extras and the quaint decor.

Stayed for my partners birthday, the cabin and property were beautiful! It was super easy to find and enter, the Magic Castle staff were quick to provide information to make our stay comfortable. Charcoal and firewood for grill and fire pit were easily accessible and the hot tub was clean and so relaxing! They bring breakfast in the morning, the homemade donuts were amazing! We brought our dog and they had so many resources available including a lead for the yard. All and all we had a great time and will be returning!

The location was perfect to attend a wedding at Fountainbleu Inn (just a short walk to venue). Also, the location next to lake was wonderful. We had plenty of bedrooms with linens/towels and extras like trash bags, paper towels, toiletries, dish soap etc was very nice. The kitchen had what we needed to cook for 10+ people, except crock pot and griddle (which we brought from home). We enjoyed the hot tub and used the propane grill on the large deck. The owner stays close by and was in communication often.

We had an amazing time at Eshay’s Cabin. It’s in a lovely location. Close to all the beautiful swimming holes and Georges in Ithaca. We will definitely be back. Thank you Eshay.

This was our second stay at this home, yet again it was a wonderful weekend. Dan is a very responsive host. The house is well-kept and cozy. The hot tub is an added bonus, it's a great way to end the day. We look forward to staying here again in the future!

Fantastic apartment in a great location! Beautifully decorated and well equipped. Street parking was hassle free, very quiet area and streets yet only a short walk to downtown.

Ann's place was beautiful, and she is a very gracious and flexible host! I stayed here because I had an emergency at my house in Ithaca and needed a place to stay last-minute with my cats, and she was more than willing to accommodate me.

Maddy’s place was wonderful! I appreciated the balance of privacy and proximity to downtown and hiking trails. The dogs loved the free space to roam safely away from the road! Inside was so comfortable and homey and well curated. Maddy is super responsive and sweet! Overall I felt right at home and the views were serene-can’t wait to visit again.

I felt so lucky to have stayed at the Fieldstone Cottage for a second time with my dog Shelby. It's always booked and the last time I was there was October 2020 when I was among the brave and few venturing out and about. How glorious to get back there in Spring this time. The Spring Peepers created a chorus in the evening as we sat and looked at the stars and warmed ourselves at the firepit. In the mornings the birdsong was so peaceful. This is such a warm and inviting place. The stone floors, the wooden beamed ceiling, so earthy and homey. Ray is super responsive and let me check-in early and make a last-minute guest add. The convenience to Ithaca College (or Cornell!) and downtown Ithaca makes this a perfect site for parents wanting to visit college kids, but also wanting an idyllic getaway. Can't wait to get back again!

Great place. Very quiet and secluded. Plenty of firewoood

Me and my wife had our wedding at Jacques residence and it was absolutely beautiful! Jacques himself was extremely friendly, incredibly helpful, and very outgoing. The property and location were absolutely gorgeous with beautiful views, fields, and an absolute gorgeous flower garden. The residence was very clean and peaceful also very beautiful with incredible architecture.

Highly recommend staying at the chapel! Clean, comfortable, spacious, well-stocked, and nicely decorated. Ample tabletop space and hooks/hangers were very convenient. Full size fridge is updated in the kitchen. Checkout process was very easy!! Kind and responsive host Alexa. I feel that living plants are rare to find in rentals and the inclusion of them here made the space extra homey! For any high-ceiling place, my general tip is to have warm layers available.

This was such a lovely little flat! The small difficulty we had getting in was our own doing due to a very long drive getting us there very late at night. But the flat itself is fantastic! Very cozy and homey, and with QUITE the little library that we absolutely LOVED! Everything was clean and orderly. Not too far outside town, and the surroundings were gorgeous.

Gratitude and Grace is an escape from the ordinary. Its a beautiful unique property in the country that was just about perfect for me and 7 bridesmaids for my low key Bachelorette. The grounds are lovely and well maintained, as it is normally a wedding venue. The inside of the mansion is eclectic and vintage. Ron is very nice and accommodating as well. Some things i may improve: Soap was watered down in all bathrooms Beds werent exactly comfortable, they seemed very old. Hot tub was just nice, It didnt get very hot though and the water was a bit cloudy The most comfortable bed is in the tiny rennovated garden shed. Although peaceful, we did have to request it be opened so we had the 8th bed as advertised. 2 girls had to bunk up together the 1st night, no big deal but would have been nice to know the 8th bed wasnt automatically available. The 7th bed is a fun loft with a ladder above a king sized bed. It was cute, but the bed was very uncomfortable so no one wanted it.

We loved this place!! There was so many amenities that we weren’t able to use because we weren’t in the house a ton as we were in a wedding, but boy did we miss out on them! We had a perfect stay and would absolutely stay again if we were ever in the area again. No complaints at all!

A great rustic getaway! It was great being between cayuga and seneca lakes - everything was a 20 min drive to see beautiful falls in every direction, great wineries/cideries (finger lakes cider house had amazing food to go with the cider), great restaurants (stonecat and elf in the oak) and Ithaca Farmer's Market (must see - so plan a Sat or Sun there). Sunsets were fabulous from the porch and over the fields and the hens were a joy to experience - so cute - and the gentle Q was so good with our cautious rescue pup. But the best part of the stay was Carey's hospitality - tending to every need and providing great suggestions of things to do/see tailored to our interests and giving us a true taste of the area - with local fresh eggs, fruit, wonderful baked bread, granola, cider, wine, cheese, baked goods and the best yogurt ever! We didn't even miss the tv (during football and world series even)!

One of our favorite AirBnb experiences! This place was perfect for our family to get together under one roof. Joan and Leo were very pleasant and easy to communicate with and were extremely flexible with our requests. The home was beautifully decorated and we were able to have great family dinners in the huge dining room! The amenities were many which made for a fun, relaxing and enjoyable vacation. Highly recommend this place and hope to come back to stay again!

Thank you, Brenda for sharing your wonderful home which made our trip even more special. With both our kids meeting up with us, the kitchen worked like a charm as they were very excited for a home cooked meal. Also, the description on the website matched very well, and it was clear how much the nightly rate would be beyond the two of us. We would certainly stay again.

We had a fantastic stay at Deborah's property! The location was perfect for exploring the Finger Lakes, and the house was cozy and accommodating for our group of six, plus our dog. It was also infant-friendly, which made our stay even more comfortable. The hot tub and games were definite highlights, adding to the fun as we traveled from Canada to connect with family. Deborah's communication was excellent throughout our stay. I highly recommend this property!

Thanks so much- we loved our stay!

Beautiful house looking over Seneca lake was a perfect fit for our weekend. The house was clean and very spacious. It is in a great location to all the wineries and breweries. Highly recommend and would come back.
