Little House in the Ithaca Woods
My family so enjoyed celebrating Thanksgiving at this beautiful, graciously appointed, cabin in the woods. Close to Ithaca and all the Cornell University activities, and the many, many, outdoors recreational opportunities, this house is the perfect launching pad for a family gathering. Highly recommend!

Absolutely beautiful property, perfectly clean and with every thoughtful amenity you could need. The home was just beautifully designed. We were there for Cornell graduation weekend and the drive in and out of Ithaca was easy. Our host was so gracious in checking in on us. Our son is now gone from Ithaca but my husband and I are really hoping to return to this home!

Another Great Stay!
This was our second stay at the Cayuga Homestead! Despite the rainy weather, everything was excellent. We enjoyed the TV on the main floor and watched many movies and relaxed. Kids had fun playing games in the basement. Kitchen had everything we needed and we took advantage of the waffle maker this time. What a hit! Excellent communication from Daura. Highly recommend!

Amazing Stay!
My friends and I spent three nights at this beautiful home. We were blown away with how large, clean, private and well-stocked the house was. We enjoyed the hot tub, fire pit and cooking meals in the large kitchen. The guidebook and communication with the host was super helpful. The house is ideally located between Watkins Glenn and Ithaca, so we were able to visit both those towns and nearby hiking spots. I'd LOVE to rent this place again!

Amazing in Every Way
This is easily one of the best vacation rentals we've ever stayed in, with so much to offer – it's incredibly clean, comfortable, and charming. Daura and Jamal are fantastic hosts and have thought of everything. From the thoughtful notes, to the multiple well-placed refrigerators, to the throw blankets near the many couches and chairs. Not to mention the sound machines in every bedroom. The house itself has a lot of character and we marveled at the architecture. As others have said, the kitchen is very well stocked, which we took full advantage of. We also really enjoyed the hot tub, which was very well maintained. The views are beautiful and despite being remote, there's a great pizza place only 10 minutes away (Covered Bridge Market & Pizzeria – highly recommended!) We really couldn't have asked for anything more – this place is one of a kind.

Nice house. Clean, well organized, and nicely appointed. So many features (ping pong, pizza oven, hot tub, etc.) that we felt we underutilized the property. Communications were timely and helpful, creating a low-stress, easy rental experience. Highly recommend.

Family Thanksgiving
My children, grandchildren, and I thoroughly enjoyed our Thanksgiving stay at this beautiful home. It not only had the necessities, but it also had many extras like houseplants, an aroma diffuser, all the lotions and soaps we could use, games and activities, etc. There was plenty of kitchen equipment for us to make Thanksgiving dinner, pancakes, pizza, etc. And it is beautiful!
