Ithaca, New York
This private wooded paradise is perched on the gorge just a 7 minute walk from the restaurants and bars of the Downtown Ithaca Commons. Cornell and Ithaca College are just a 20 minute walk away as well. Hike the Mulholland Wildflower Preserve and stunning 1st Dam just down the street. Guests have been loving the 1 bedroom "Urban Cabin" in the same house since 2016. So the hosts have opened up the entire 2nd floor apartment for visitors to enjoy the soothing sounds of the creek and gorgeous surroundings. The largest bedroom has a balcony overlooking Giles Street.
This is a lovely house right on the Gorge. Beautiful views! Easy access to the house, great parking and close enough to walk to the Commons. The host responded very fast to questions.
Host was very helpful and friendly and view and location was great. Building/apartment and furnishing were bare bones but fit our needs for the trip.
This place is a gem! It’s not fancy or frilly and it’s a bit tired but for us that was perfect. No worries about messing anything up. Very easy to keep clean. Great for our family of four. We like “no shoes worn upstairs” - keeps it clean! Nice organic shampoo/cleansers, etc. even extra toothbrushes and trash bags provided. Towels aplenty and lofty. Great communication with rental company. The place had everything we needed. One point of caution which was actually nice but important to know about - WATER WAS VERY VERY HOT! Don’t flush toilet during shower. But the upside was plenty of hot water which was great for cleaning and a family of four - much better than the opposite right!? Just be careful. Beds were firm and solidly supportive, not too hard; and I have a bad back. I was happy with that. WE WERE VERY PLEASED WITH THIS UNIT both for the value and the location/experience. We hope to rent it again on a future visit.
Very clean, peaceful and beautiful setting! Would love to have some coffee making options available in the morning.
We loved our stay here!! This charming apartment among the trees is incredibly clean and comfortable. It was also very well-located for the Ithaca College graduation. Communication with the very thoughtful host, Alicia, was excellent. We can’t wait to stay here again the next time we visit Ithaca!
Comfy and relaxing vacation spot. Conveniently close to the Commons and Collegetown. Beautiful view of the creek from the house. Excellent natural lighting. And the water boiler was a blessing.
We loved the proximity to the creek and The Commons.
Perfect location and great host. Cozy and clean. Would definitely stay there again!
This was an extremely convenient spot that checked a lot of boxes. Very close to Ithaca Commons, yet parking was easy. Having the separate bedrooms was key for us. Thanks for the local walks advice, waterfall on path just up the street was Gorges, even in low water. Very economical for the location. Thanks a bunch.
If I could give it more than 5 stars I would. It was super clean, homey, and comfortable. You felt like you were a guest in someone’s home. It was also very affordable and convenient to everything you need. The owner communicated with me frequently and responded quickly. This is the place to stay while visiting Ithaca.
