Apartment vacation rentals in Ithaca

Staying at this charming little cottage near the Finger Lakes was an absolute delight. The moment we arrived, I felt as if I’d been transported to Scandinavia, surrounded by serene natural beauty and peaceful views. The quiet sounds of nature made it the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. Alicia was incredibly friendly, responsive, and accommodating, making sure that every aspect of our stay was perfect. Without a doubt, this is a 10 out of 10 experience, and we can’t wait to return for a longer visit to explore more of the property and the surrounding town! Thank you again!

I originally booked a hotel for my visit but am so happy I switched to Carolyn’s Airbnb instead. Easy check in, and everything was super stocked in the bathroom and kitchen, which was a nice surprise! Responsive and friendly host. Will definitely come again if I have the chance!

This place was perfect for the venue I was attending. It was less than a 5 minute drive to SUNY Cartland and about a 5 minute walk to downtown restaurants, a CVS, and gas stations. The place itself was very roomy and clean. I felt very comfortable and safe. Jerry was very responsive and friendly in all of communications. I would highly recommend Jerry’s place.

Wonderful stay at this lovely apartment. Perfect location to Cornell and downtown Ithaca. Host was super accommodating and friendly. So much better than a hotel stay! We will definitely be back!

So I'll start by giving a glowing review! This was our first Airbnb experience and I feel like Sarah set the bar very high. We had a wonderful stay. We were blown away at how beautiful, pristine and nicely decorated her "Loft" was. It was fully stocked beyond our expectations. there was plenty of things for us to use if we needed them. Her deck outside was just gorgeous with a beautiful view, comfortable chairs and a gas fireplace. Sarah was very attentive and got back to me immediately when I had questions. You could literally forget your toiletries and you wouldn't have to worry because Sarah had them there for you. We were less than 10 minutes away from the heart of Watkins Glen. Easy drive into town. My husband was very impressed with the parking pad that we had right at the base of the stairs to get into the loft. The description of The loft on the Airbnb website was accurate. we loved our first Airbnb experience. we will definitely be back to Sarah's place.

Karen was an exceptional host. She greeted us and made sure to answer any questions we may have had. She guided us to some local places to eat. Karen has a comfortable private space attached to her home and cannot wait to return.

Great cozy home! Communication with Sam was easy and response was immediate.

Our stay at Ron's was beautiful! I absolutely loved how close we were to Watkins Glen and the fact that we could see the lake from our doorstep! Would stay with Ron again :) Huge pros: • It's super close to Watkins Glen and Seneca Lake • Amazing firepit setup! Setup smartly such that the smoke only blows one direction so you can stay out of it • Well stocked with everything — bathroom/kitchen necessities and then some! Some tradeoffs to be aware of: • There's a few steep stairs to get up to the apartment • The water's a bit funky (somewhat sulfurish smell) so we ended up using the bottled gallon of water Ron left us in the fridge and buying some more for our longer stay

We had such a great time at Andrew’s place! He was super helpful and gave us awesome tips on what to do around. The house looks just like the pictures, the beds are super comfy, and the coffee was amazing. Totally worth it!

My family stayed at Laura's place this weekend while I was in town for the Gorges Ithaca Half Marathon. I chose her home based on the excellent reviews and its convenient location for the race—and it absolutely lived up to expectations. The space was just as advertised: cozy, clean, and very comfortable. We felt right at home. I would definitely consider booking Laura’s place again if we’re ever back in the area.

Great host and great place. very well sitauted, ample parking. Hosts were very accommodating and responsive. Will stay here again.

Had such a great stay with no issues at all. Very nice private lodging right next to their main house and Jayden was friendly, very responsive, and helpful. Lovely decor which gave a cozy/homey yet modern feel with all new-looking and up to date amenities. Noticed a great selection of books available on the shelves. Also a nice garden/back area if you're looking for a peaceful retreat near some nice nature. Was way better than staying in Ithaca and easy to get to Ithaca/Seneca Lake for a weekend of hiking and wine-tasting. Would love to stay here again next time we're in the area!

We had a wonderful stay in an idyllic setting! The location is perfect--peaceful with gorgeous views, and only 15 minutes away from Corning where there is plenty to do for a weekend getaway. BJ was super accommodating and I loved having the opportunity to meet the goats and learn about the history of the farm. I would definitely stay here again.

This is the second time we have stayed at Timothy‘s gorgeous Victorian home. We stayed in a different unit this time and it was just as cozy and clean as the other one. We just love the home, the wood floors, the giant windows and on and on. This is a great location, a quick walk to downtown- coffee, grocery store, restaurants, museums and more. We did have a question for Timothy the first night we arrived and he responded within minutes. He’s a very nice and caring person. We will be staying again :)

Nice little getaway just 10-15 mins from downtown Ithaca and Cornell’s campus which made it perfect for a visit with privacy. The bed was INCREDIBLY comfortable - probably the most comfortable bed in an Airbnb that I’ve experienced ! Made everything very comfortable for us and Mariko and David even wrote a welcome note to us for my reunion ! Little touches which made for a great stay!

Spacious, quiet apt in a great location — easily walkable to a fav coffeeshop and local restaurants. It was perfect for our needs. Aaron was very responsive and helpful throughout our stay. Would definitely book again and highly recommend!

Thank you Suzanne! We enjoyed our stay and it was in great proximity of Cornell for our son's graduation. Just a couple of really small things to enhance guests' future stays. WD-40 on the bathroom doors and a little more comfortable sleeping pillows. Everything else was just great and we had an amazing weekend. The views of the pond and beyond and the serernity was just beautiful. The space was perfect for us. Thank you so much!

Loved how close it was to locations and offered a beautiful view of Seneca Lake. Had tons of resources around for a great vacation!

This was our third stay at Dan’s loft. As always we appreciate the clean, clutter-free space and very comfortable bed. Wi-Fi is fast; check-in a breeze. It’s clear that Dan takes pride in this special place. We take care to treat it respectfully & clean up after ourselves! Thank-you so much Dan!! Sandy & Rudy

Three of us stayed at Peggy’s place for a weekend and my only regret is not booking for longer! The location is a dream—right on the lake and only a few minutes drive from the farmer’s market and other must-see places in Ithaca. I hope to come back!

Had a girls weekend, and this was the perfect place. Beautiful views and had everything we needed. Host was very responsive and friendly. Gave us great recommendations for places to eat. Would love to come back.

Kelsey’s place was perfect for our home-away-from home in Fall Creek. The location is extremely walkable and friendly, and the house itself is charming, colorful, and appointed with everything you need (including a comfy bed.) The design is thoughtful and creative. We especially loved cooking in the kitchen — great pots and pans and everything else. Kelsey and Abel were super responsive, friendly, and helpful. Thank you!!

Christina is a wonderful host! Her place was spotless and she is a very thoughtful host. The location is easy to access from downtown Ithaca.

Great place in the Finger Lakes area. Katie was very responsive and helpful. Very quiet place.
