This property was everything we could have hoped for for a relaxing vacation week. The beautiful scenery along with the hot tub made for such a wonderful week and with the game room as well it had everything we could have wanted for my family of 4. A great week and we would love to revisit again sometime in the future!

The house is beautiful, even better than pictured. Close to Ithaca, perfect for a short getaway for our small group of friends. Checkin was smooth and easy, with clear and helpful instructions and very prompt communication with the host. We are in the area quite frequently, and will absolutely rent again and will not hesitate to recommend this place for family and friends. Great find!

About the host

Hosted by Daura Driscoll & Jamal Diboun

Host profile image
We recently built this brand new custom home with our family construction business. This home has never been lived in. We have lived in his area for 18 years and love the Finger Lakes so much we wanted to create a beautiful home for people to come enjoy all this area has to offer year round.

Why they chose this property

This property has 360° views, meadow, and hardwood forest to be enjoyed in all seasons. It is a great springboard for any Finger Lakes adventure. Short drive to Ithaca and Cayuga Lake, Cornell, and Ithaca College, or Watkins Glen and Seneca Lake.

What makes this property unique

This is a custom built home unlike any other with the barn wood features, charm, and lots of character. So much to do inside and outside the home, it will be hard to leave the property.
