Nestled in a peaceful wooded setting, our contemporary 1 bedroom cottage invites you to relax, surrounded by nature and hiking trails. Only five minutes to Cornell and ten minutes to downtown Ithaca.

The wrap around deck provides the idyllic setting for dinners from the grill. A private deck off the master bedroom invites an early morning coffee while listening to the birds or in the evening, relaxing with a glass of Finger Lakes wine by the crackling fire in the chiminea.

The property is surrounded by a public nature preserve with direct access to hiking trails. Our home is located at the end of a long gravel driveway through the woods, about 1500' from the main road.

Also, if you have questions at any point, we are available, so please don't hesitate to call or text.

    Amazing property- the hosts truly exceeded my expectations! From the fresh flowers and fruit to the espresso machine, the hosts did a fantastic job providing “extras” to make this a memorable stay!

    Could not think of a better location. Straight shot to Cornell, Ithaca Commons, and Dryden.

    Well cared for property, perfectly stocked for anything that might be needed. I hope to be able to stay here again in the future when we are in town.

    An amazing location with fantastic hosts! Never have I felt so welcome staying somewhere, the hosts are so lovely and made the trip away so much more special. The area is absolutely stunning with loads to see and do. The wood where the lodge is nestled is breathtakingly tranquil. If I book another trip to the states, this is where I am staying!! Cannot recommend enough, you'll love it here!

    The cottage was very clean, stocked with goodies (wine, water, milk, orange juice, fruit, soda, yogurt), and all the little touches considered. Janelle emailed me throughout the stay to ensure everything was working out. We really enjoyed our week-long stay here and appreciate the clean, well-thought-out accommodations and extra goodies. We booked another week in a few months to visit our son. We also had little baby frogs welcome us each morning at the stairs as we departed.

    The place is clean and quiet...all you see is forest when you look out of the windows. Perfect space for new family or couple.

    Had a great stay at the cottage in the woods! Clean, cute and cozy! Janelle and Aaron were so easy to communicate with and provided some lovely amenities including coffee, wine, snacks and a bowl of fruit! Would definitely recommend and will be back!

    We stayed at this property while visiting Ithaca and the Finger Lakes region to celebrate our anniversary. It was very comfortable and convenient to the sights we wanted to visit. It was exactly as described and we enjoyed our visit tremendously. Janelle and Aaron are great hosts.
