A wonderful haven
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!

Relax and unwind
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.

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.

Talk about a hidden GEM! My wife, two boys and I had the pleasure of enjoying this magnificent property. From the cats that greeted us when we pulled into the driveway to the property that wowed us and kept reminding us how fortunate we were to pick this place. Beautiful views, relaxing atmosphere, and a comfortable place to lay our heads made it SO much better than we had anticipated. We enjoyed the dock and the sounds of nature, the yard to play catch, and the fire pit to enjoy smores for a nice quiet evening. Hotels don't stand a chance when there are amazing options like this that exist. We are already talking about coming up next year and hope this place is available when we start our planning. If you are looking for something different than a hotel where doors are slamming and footsteps keep you up most of the night, THIS is what you are looking for.

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.

Cozy rustic abode
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

Heavenly, with frogs
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.
