A hidden gem!
Our stay was perfect! We were in Ithaca for a sports competition and needed somewhere that we could cook healthy meals and have quiet/downtime in between events. About 10-15 minutes from Ithaca College Athletic Center, the apartment is nestled in a private lot in a beautiful setting. This could not have been more perfect! The apartment was clean, spacious, and comfortable. High end finishes made it feel like a luxury hotel but without the sticker shock of one. We even were able to grill outside! Everything was stocked, and the property manager was helpful and responsive to every question I had immediately. If we are ever back in Ithaca this will be my go to booking!

This is an amazingly nice, beautifully decorated, and spacious apartment. Victoria was a great host and has thoughtfully prepared the apartment for a relaxing stay. This apartment is equipped with everything needed for a great stay. The private patio is bordered by a pretty hosta garden. It is located just a few miles from Ithica NY. We will stay here on our next visist to the Finger lakes.

Gem in the Finger Lakes
This place is absolutely sweet. The apartment & grounds are beautiful, clean & had everything we could possibly need. It was in a great spot located close to the hiking trails we did, wineries & downtown Ithaca. Our host Vickie was so thoughtful & welcoming, checking to make sure we had everything we needed & then some, evening providing delicious pastries for our first morning. We look forward to returning there again!

The apartment is very nicely decorated, clean and comfortable. Victoria was attentive to details. The complimentary pastry was a very welcomed "extra." It is well-sutuated between Ithaca and T-Burg in a beautiful setting and we would certainly stay agai .g.

great place close to ithaca
so beautiful relaxing and calm, the perfect place to stay for a business trip to ithaca but i'm sure also for anyone . we were afraid there'd be highway noise but really heard nothing. place was PERFECT as was the host. can't say enough. just stress free the way it should be! perfect relaxing apartment to work and relax in
The apartment is beautifully furnished, with everything one could want in the kitchen in order to cook, bake, or grill at home. Lovely private patio, very quiet, plenty of hot water. Victoria, the owner, went out of her way to be helpful. It’s an easy 10 minute drive to Cornell or to the grocery store, or 15 to Taughannock Falls Park. Dining room seats 8. My son said the sofa bed as very comfortable. Pantry for storage, dish washer, laundry- it would be fabulous for a more extended stay, but I had to get home for an appointment.

Perfect for a couple
The apartment is modern and well appointed, with everything you could need in the kitchen, a comfortable bedroom, and open concept living. We appreciated the welcoming outdoor space/patio - perfect for morning coffee, reading a book, or enjoying a glass of wine with dinner. Vickie is a wonderfully friendly and attentive host who takes pride in ensuring your stay is comfortable. The apartment was spotlessly clean and Vickie checked in on us to ensure we had everything we needed. This is a great location for exploring the Finger Lakes and we would recommend taking one of the cruises on Cayuga Lake. We wish we could have stayed longer.

Lovely Apartment outside of Town
Victoria was a wonderful host and had everything ready for our 3 evening stay. The apartment is very well decorated and appointed, especially as we like to cook when we travel. The kitchen is top notch! We even harvested some fresh chard from Victoria's garden. We would stay there again!
This apartment is beautiful! It was immaculate and provided everything we needed for our stay. The hostess was welcoming and responsive. There is also a nice outdoor area with a grill and seating. It was a quick drive into downtown. Truly the best of both worlds.
