The host was wonderful. We really enjoyed our stay. The place was very quiet and relaxing. Exactly what we were looking for and we would absolutely stay again.
This is a unique, charming little homestead, and David was as courteous and responsive a host as we’ve had. I would definitely recommend the property and stay again when in the area.
The host was super friendly with speedy replies, the cabin was so cute and cozy, and the check in was super easy. The three kitties was an added bonus! Would 100% stay again if ever in the area.
We loved the beautiful property with a pond and amazing views. The cabin is well appointed and comfortable. Excellent hosts with great communication. We would stay here again!
A truly magical stay on a beautiful piece of land. We were surrounded by tranquility and very sweet cats (who live on the property). David and his family were very kind of welcoming. Would fully recommend to anyone and would love to come back for another stay!
David’s cottage was exactly as described. Beautiful location, peaceful, clean & comfortable. Communication was quick & easy with the host. Will definitely recommend & stay again!
This place is great for getting away for just a little while and forgetting all your worries. Property was very clean, and had all the amenities and more we could ask for! Would most definitely come back for another relaxation weekend.
We had a great stay. This cottage/cabin is on a lovely property. The cabin has unique charm that made us feel at home. The owners are very polite and responsive. You will feel at peace instantly and be able to take a breath of fresh air.
Cute little cottage in a stunningly beautiful & quiet area. Gorgeous sunrises and star gazing. Well stocked kitchen and bathroom. Dave was very attentive and responsive. The kitties around the property were very sweet & friendly. Would definitely return!

Peaceful haven off the beaten path. We were lucky enough to have spectacular weather and spent lazy afternoon hours reading by the pond to the sound of crickets and birds and sipping coffee on the porch in the morning. A quaint and well appointed cabin - and wonderful communication from the host. Looking forward to getting back there soon…
This was such a beautiful, serene place. Location was excellent for Ithaca, Watkins Glen and Cornell waterfall trails and hiking. The upstairs loft was super cute but we slept on the futon downstairs, which was so comfortable with a thick memory foam topper. Also, I had never experienced bath towels like these.... so luxurious!We had company at our mightly campfires. Very friendly feline friends.This is cozy, country charm with a bit of artistic whimsy. Magical Thank you, David!
Eclectic decor, comfortable cabin with a great view, friendly outdoor cats, good bathroom and kitchen. We didn’t use the upstairs bed as the ladder seemed a bit daunting in the night. We really enjoyed the house and the yard, and we hope to return.
Small but cozy. Lots of nice rustic touches. If in summer heat wave, can be hot in loft bed (otherwise quite comfortable). Didn’t use kitchen but seems quite well stocked snd laid out. Supremely quiet with well-working windows/screens, letting in lots of natural light. Host amiable and responsive. Highly recommend
David’s cabin was quirky in the best way—lovingly built and furnished, with all the fluffy towels and kitchen goods we needed for a short stay. The grounds were serene and delightful, with a rainbow of birds and wildflowers, three friendly cats, fireflies, and some raucous nocturnal frogs that were easily drowned out with the provided fans. The perfect quiet (except those frogs!) country retreat. Note: the cabin is on a gravel road; our rental car seems to have emerged unscathed.
This is such a quant get away cabin. No tv, but they have wifi. We wanted to come home at night and relax after being out at the finger lakes all day- away from it all. This hit the mark. The owner was great and the place was well maintained. We really enjoyed our stay.
This is a cool and eclectic place located on a beautiful property overlooking surrounding hills. The house was very clean and had all the amenities needed for a weekend stay. I highly recommend!
This place was perfect for a well needed rest from NYC. The property is beautiful and the owner very responsive. Really enjoyed my stay. Would stay here again.
