It's for the most part a good house for a group of people

pros: Kitchen was very well stocked with dishes and cookware, everything you could possibly need. The rooms were comfortable and good sizes. Game room in basement was fun.Hosts very responsive.Cons: it could have been cleaner, but hosts will talk to supposedly new cleaners.The only bathroom on the main floor is in one of the bedrooms so you have to go upstairs unless the people in that bedroom don't care about everyone using their bathroom. There was a bad smell in that bathroom, but hosts are saying it's new and will look into it.

Fantastic house - well appointed and truly ideal for getting away from it all.

Most well equipped house we have ever stayed in! Really great gathering spots and a fantastic location. Close to Ithaca, yet on a beautiful secluded lot.

Wonderful stay in the Finger Lakes

We had a wonderful stay at this cabin. It was perfect for families with small children - the hosts were very accommodating and responsive to our requests and even provided a high chair! The house was clean, well-stocked and exactly as described. We would absolutely come back to stay on Lake Cayuga!

Summer Long Weekend Getaway

Stayed in this beautiful home with a few friends. We really enjoyed everything about it — the kitchen was clean, modern and well-equipped. The house was beautifully furnished and very comfortable. Lots of outdoor decks and spaces to enjoy the beautiful surroundings. And plenty of good restaurants and amenities nearby — wish we could’ve stayed longer. Will definitely be back!!

Lovely Thanksgiving gathering place

This was a beautiful and perfectly outfitted spot for our large family to gather for Thanksgiving. The property is gorgeous and serene. The house has everything you could need for hosting family or a group of friends. The hosts were incredibly accommodating, helpful when we needed them, and otherwise unobtrusive. Totally wonderful stay! We hope it's available again next year!

girls weekend

this place was amazing-camp like setting with everything you need but a roof over our heads instead of a tent.-we will defiantly come back in the near future. The only down fall was the ants, they need to spray or traps ,but everything else was great!!!

Fun in the Finger Lakes

We spent a long weekend at the "house in the woods." It was perfect for 2 families to share. We arrived to a meticulously clean home and Anand and Priti thought of every last detail to make the stay a comfortable one. We would rent from them again in a heart beat.

Quiet and leafy surroundings. Everything was in great condition and attractive decor. The house is really well designed. Balconies everywhere! We loved watching the cardinal on her nest in the forsythia.

Eden in the woods...

Beautiful space- very clean and well appointed. We had a large crowd, including some children, but we were comfortably housed. We used all of the amenities- fire ring, ping pong table and outside porch spaces. We found it quiet and totally relaxing.
