The cabin was nicely presented and equipped with everything we needed. We loved the isolated feeling, although it was only a short drive to the nearest village and shop. Contacting the owner to obtain access when we arrived was a little difficult because cell reception is poor there (the WiFi is excellent however).

Our stay was just heavenly!! So peaceful!! I didn’t want to leave the porch!! The cabin had everything we needed and was so incredibly clean!! Even though it was tucked back in the woods, we didn’t even see one bug inside!! Can’t wait until our next stay!

Great!

It was a great place to stay and close to state parks. ( Watkins Glen, Buttermilk Falls, Robert Treman, and Taughannock. It had most main essentials for basic cooking, but only gave us 2 washcloths for family of 5. Nice grill and firepit to enjoy. Very clean and good communication from the hosts. Very pretty secluded area but only 20 minutes away from a town with a store or restaurant.

a very convenient location

It's very quietly located, but close to all locations we were visiting. The cabin is clean and pleasant. It can use better kitchen supplies including pots, pans and knives for people who need to cook. The pond is a walk, and could be missed if you don't walk all the way in the trail. Overall, we loved our stay.

This was a GREAT alternative to a motel!

We wanted to visit Watkins Glen and Ithica for a weekend getaway, and this cabin was perfectly located between them! Everything was clean, well-maintained, and lovely. It even had everything needed to make our own meals and our morning coffee. The wifi is a lifesaver if you need to stay on the grid as well. We loved it!

Fantastic hidden gem

Awesome experience all the way around from booking to checking in, staying and checking out. Super affordable and exactly as advertised with a fully equipped cabin, all appliances, cookware, utensils, washer/dryer, etc. Super clean and dead quiet nature view. Wonderful trip all the way from Ohio. We will def stay here again soon, probably in the fall. Outstanding job to Ron and his wife on the property management and facilitating a fantastic stay!

A beautiful cabin

We really enjoyed our stay at this beautiful cabin surrounded by nature. The peaceful setting and lack of cell phone signal made it perfect. We especially loved sipping coffee on the deck while taking in the forest views, and the outdoor firepit was a great touch. Thank you for the thoughtful gift of wine!Just a heads-up to future guests: the cabin is quite remote, so be sure to bring everything you might need and save the directions ahead of time—there's no cell service in the area. It would also be helpful if the kitchen were a bit more stocked with basic essentials.
