Clean, very cool place to stay. My gf and i spent a weekend, did some hiking, Saturday and went out that night. We ended up listening to the rain Saturday night it was a delight. Will definitely stay again when in the area.

Very quiet, comfortable, and charming place to stay. Super close to beautiful hiking that the area offers. Also, conveniently located between Ithaca, Watkins Glen, and Trumansburg which all provide great options for food and drinks.

This place is so lovely. Lots of privacy without being totally isolated. Also very cozy and spacious. Kind of exactly in the sweet spot of nice things about camping with all the comfort of a real house. If you're a plant nerd like me, there are a lot of cool things to see right outside the door. Very convenient location for Ithaca and all the state parks.The host communicated well. I didn't need anything from them, but if i had needed anything I'm confident they would have been responsive.

The yurt was such a perfect setting for our anniversary weekend! Was nervous about no AC since it had been so hot but a unit had been installed and made it perfect!

Glad you enjoyed your stay. Thanks for the feedback. We always try upgrading to make our guests most comfortable. In 10 years of renting, we never felt AC was needed till this year! .

For the lock to the yurt: press any button until the pad lights up, THEN type the code. It was pouring when we got there and couldn't hear the speaker on the lock. Drive slowly as well! They say often it is a working farm, there are dogs and other vehicles heading about. Truly a singular experience, a great cabin/camping style experience but with just enough amenities of life to stay sane. Hosts are very nice and communicative but not invasive, the loft is comfortable but the couch will fit two people if it is too cold or hot. The wood stove will get QUITE HOT so read the helpful instructions for it too and the restaurant recommendations as well. I would come back in a minute!

The WiFi is high speed as indicated in the listing. But cell service is spotty in this area, that is correct. If you had WiFi issues, we’re sorry you didn’t notify us. We would have been glad to troubleshoot it for you.

good location

We enjoyed our stay in the yurt. It had everything we needed. The location was great...secluded yet close enough to Watkins Glen and other falls/hiking areas.
