The apt was more spacious and comfortable than I expected and the location was perfect with a quiet location and a very short but scenic drive to the university. I would definitely stay again.
This is a great setup for anyone visiting the area. Very neat, clean, space, and everything is well-maintained. Great bed/linens, and everything is well-explained. MInutes from town and in a very quiet area. We definitely hope to come back.
Loved our stay! Perfect space for us while visiting our daughter. Quiet and serene. Bonus points for coffee, water, snacks, and toiletries provided! Great hosts with excellent communication.
Astrid and Ian were so welcoming and friendly! My family stayed here as my daughter was settling in on the Colgate Campus. Conveniently located and well appointed. Thank you for being such great hosts!

Astrid and Ian are lovely hosts with beautiful property. The apartment is perfect for a few nights stay that's close to my family. I've stayed twice now and its been a pleasure. I hope to be back over the summer!
This was a great place for me to spend a relaxing night after moving my kid into Colgate and recharging for the drive home.

My husband and I have made this house our home since 2001 and raised our twin sons here. I grew up in the Netherlands and teach science at our local public school. My husband teaches at Colgate University and enjoys managing the grounds around the property, including 40 acres of land across the street.
