Beautiful property and location was perfect, a short drive to Ithaca but far enough away for a big dose of peace and tranquility. When we return to this area, this will be our first choice to stay at.

Weekend getaway

The lake shore home is very comfortable with spectacular views of the lake. We enjoyed the firepit outside and bird watching the many species of water fowl. The house is equipped with several extras which made it stress free. We had a wonderful Easter weekend getaway, We visited the difference falls, college and Ithaca.

great place!

The home was clean and had many thoughtful touches. The kitchen is well stocked, which made things easier during our stay. The view from the window waking up in the morning is lovely and peaceful. A great place to get away for a few days, which was exactly what we were looking for. Jennifer and Mitch were responsive and kind. Highly recommend!

Lovely stay!

Stayed at “Simply Irresistible” for just over a week. It was so relaxing, great views, and easy location to access hiking trails, restaurants and grocery in Ithaca and even cute spots in Lansing (definitely recommend the ice cream at Scoops). House amenities were wonderful — loved how well appointed the kitchen was with great appliances and plenty of pots and pans so that we could make meals at “home.” And despite all the rain during our time here, we were able to use the fire pit one evening. Our family of three (adult son with husband and myself) would definitely come back for another stay. Thanks Jennifer!

Great stay for Thanksgiving

We stayed over the Thanksgiving holiday and loved the quiet location. Access to walk to Salt Point Natural Area and a short drive to other walking locations. The location is secluded, but very close to Lansing and Ithaca. The owners were very kind and accommodating with our unscheduled flight changes.

Very cozy lake house

Our family had a wonderful time in this lake house. It has everything: breathtaking views, exceptional cleanliness, comfortable beds, a fully equipped kitchen, and many local attractions. We visited the Ithaca market, hiked the Cornell waterfalls, and enjoyed the barbeque with the sunsets at the lake.

Heavenly

We've stayed here twice and it's the absolute best place in the whole area. I've stayed at a half dozen other properties all over the Finger Lakes region, but this one takes the cake. Gorgeous house, every amenity you could want, and the best sunset view available. A few minutes drive takes you into Ithaca for restaurants, bakeries, grocery stores, and the Ithaca Farmers' Market. Can't overstate what a great place this is to stay.
