Rustic, Cozy Cottage with Backyard Waterfall and Cayuga Lake Views!
This cozy cottage, with it's rustic charm will instantly make you feel like you have taken a step back in time to a simpler, quieter pace of life.
The cottage is attached to a multi family home. The two main apartments are vacant. The entire property will be private to you and your guests. Please note there is no access to the main home, you will only have access to the cottage.
The cottage has two private entrances (one in the bedroom) and plenty of parking. The BEST part is the gorgeous waterfall just outside and the breathtaking views of Cayuga Lake, Cornell, and the parks below.
The cottage has a master bedroom (three stairs up from living room) with a queen-size bed and a big window overlooking your very own waterfall! You can open the window to hear the beautiful sounds of the waterfall as you sleep! **Please note: for very tall persons (6ft+) the ceiling in the bedroom is lower than most.**
The front door of the cottage enters (about five steps up) into the living room with plenty of natural light and scenery. Two futons can become full-size beds, perfect for additional guests or children.
The dining nook can seat up to 6. Extra chairs are located in the large closet in the living room. The cottage comes with a full kitchen with all needed dishes, including pots and pans. We have a Ninja drip style coffee pot, toaster, tea kettle, microwave, and all essentials needed for cooking. Coffee, sugar, and creamer is provided.
Guest have a nice yard space right next to the backyard waterfall with a fire pit and outdoor table and chairs. We have lanterns for light and mosquito repellent.
We do allow pets, up to two dogs and we do not have any breed or size limits. We do have a modest $15 per night pet fee. We do ask that you clean up after your pets outside.
Full self check in is our standard which is very easy, the lock box code will be sent in your booking details. Our check-in letter includes lots of information for your stay so please take a look. If you will be coming in after dark, we will be happy to leave the porch light on for you.
Plenty of space all around! Located at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, only a mile from downtown, yet secluded alongside 50 acres of woods overlooking Cayuga Lake.
Other things to note:
**The driveway is a bit steep. Please use caution when entering, stay close to the mailbox side when entering and exiting for the smoothest possible experience.
Our only expectations for guests are to take out garbage and recycling upon check-out, dishes washed, and gather dirty towels and place in a single spot on the floor.
No need to make the bed before you check out as we will be stripping it anyway. However if you would prefer to strip the bed please go ahead!
Plenty of parking available, there is a spot just outside the entrance of the cottage for one vehicle. Additional parking is to the right of the cottage facing the lake. Please do not park on the grass when parking near the entrance. Stay in the gravel to prevent damage to the lawn.
House manual:
There are 50 acres of woods a short walk from the cottage with a path down to the Black Diamond Trail, that guest are welcome to explore (directions are on the fridge inside.)
Regarding the interior of the cottage there is a large storage closet off the living room in which you will find extra dining room chairs, a mattress topper for the futons, a pack-n-play, booster seat, fan, and plenty of extra bedding.
In the bedroom closet, you will find plenty of extra bedding for the futons or bed. On the upper shelf of the closet, you will find lots of extra pillows.
It is my pleasure to help with anything I possibly can to ensure a great stay for you and your guests. If you need anything at all or have questions, please message me!

This is a beautiful place to stay. We loved the quiet outdoor space and the waterfall. The house was clean and the kitchen was nicely stocked. The house is near to things to do but also in a quiet area.

We loved the view of countryside and backyard waterfall. Also, the yard was big enough to play with our dogs. Charming place and great communication from the hostess.

Host was amazing and super great at communication! Loved how cozy it was and in a great location. The waterfall rocks and really enjoyed seeing it while it was snowing. Also really appreciate the soft lighting from the lamps. I am not a big light fan so it was so nice with the electric fireplace going.

Although nothing fancy, and at the time we went the waterfall was barely a dribble (as were a lot of falls in the area), this was the perfect home base for exploring other falls that were in the area (including many right in Ithaca!), the Cayuga Wine Trail, Watkins Glen and the beautiful finger lakes. We would stay here again!

We enjoyed our stay. Really appreciated being able to have our dogs stay with us. The property is quiet and feels isolated yet it's close to town. The driveway is not easy to find in the dark.
