Vacation rentals with beach access in Tompkins County

The location is great—right by the lake with stunning views. The apartment was clean, cozy, and well-equipped with everything we needed. The host was responsive and made sure our stay was comfortable. Highly recommend this spot for a peaceful getaway

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!

This place was beautiful! Unfortunately our weather for late May was chilly which is uncommon, so we will be returning when the weather is much nicer!

Stunning sunrises, comfortable unit with spotless cleaning and great decor.

Lovely and spacious with a knock out view of the lake from the main bedroom.

The Copper Barn is in a perfect location. Easy to get to every place we wanted to go. Our room was perfect for a quick weekend visit.

I can’t say enough about how wonderful Peggy’s boat house is. This is my second time staying here and I have never stayed at the same ABB twice. This time I brought the kids because I wanted to share the beauty of this place and Ithaca and I knew they would love it. Sitting on the dock fishing and enjoying the views on Cayuga lake is so peaceful and relaxing. Peggy is a very welcoming host and keeps the place very tidy. There are so many things to do. Ithaca Falls is a very short drive away. Buttermilk Falls is a bit further away (not much) and is a beautiful hike. Great restaurants are nearby. I love the area and would love to come back someday.

We loved our week at the Airbnb. Having access to the lake is unbeatable, and Dan was so thoughtful in every aspect; especially when it rained, he put wood under cover so we could have wood for a fire! The house was clean and the kitchen was well equipped. We would stay here again!

The house is beautifully renovated and very high tech!!! The kitchen is a dream. Loved the furniture and fire pit on the deck. Convenient to Ithaca and many restaurants/ hikes. Master bed very comfortable. Love that each bedroom has its own bathroom. We all took turns with the massage chair every night - it was a big hit! Lorena was very kind and responsive. Would definitely stay again!

It was a beautiful, comfortable lake house! We stayed with family for a Cornell Graduation and the location couldn’t have been better. Kayaking on the lake was fun and the kids enjoyed the hammock in the back of the house.

Martha's place is lovely. Adorable cottage in a great location. It's a short drive to town for restaurants. stores and parks. The lake is so beautiful and peaceful, a quiet little spot with a beautiful view. It was exactly what we needed, and a great view to relax by. The kitchen was nicely equipped also for preparing a few meals. Thank you for sharing your cottage.

We loved this house! Exactly as described. Very clean, well maintained, cute decor with personal touches, but it’s the views that are incredible, beautiful, and peaceful. The location is stunning, and the amazing Taughannock Falls are less than a mile down the road. Andy was responsive, friendly and welcoming. We were in town for college graduation (IC or Cornell are about a 20 minute drive), with parents and grandparents. Was a great spot for all of us. When I asked if there was an iron (had to get those graduation clothes ready!), Andy made sure one was in the house for us when we got there. One thing to know - the beach and the dock are down a steep set of stairs. Andy offered use of his tram if we needed help getting down there, so that’s a nice option. There is a nice grassy area and dock by the water. I highly recommend this place!

Great spot right on the water overlooking Cayuga lake. we enjoyed beautiful sunrises and moonrises from the porch. It's also only 5-10m from downtown Ithaca, and 5m from taughannock falls, 15m from Cornell. Seneca lake wineries /breweries only 25m away. Property extremely well appointed: not cluttered, but still enough kitchenware, bedding, games, etc. The elevator via the driveway is great (and a fun quirk!) but I might recommend using the lower lot (via Ithaca yacht club) for bigger unloading/loading. we also enjoyed evening walks to the IYC kids park and nearby waterfalls. Glenwood pines also only a 5m walk (or 1m ride) for a quick bite. overall highly recommend! Cayuga nature center/treehouse was also close and fun for kiddos.

Great Hosts! Very responsive. House has a lot of space and close to Cornel Campus and main Ithaca attractions!

We came back to stay at Dave’s house for our son’s graduation weekend at Cornell and we are so happy we did it. We were able to host friends and family over a busy weekend where restaurants for large groups of people are out of reach. The house was extremely well equipped for hosting dinner for a large party. We loved the sun room. Our favorite place for breakfast and afternoon gatherings. While the weather didn’t help, we were able to use the fire pit and spend some time outside one of the nights. We hope we can be back again soon!

Dominic's place was awesome. The house was excellent and our kids (12, 10, 8 and 6) had a blast. The location was centrally located for all the amenities Ithaca has to offer (restaurants, breweries, waterfalls). We would for sure come back for another stay.

Luz is an excellent host. I really enjoyed my stay at this Airbnb. Very clean, quiet, and comfortable with every amenity a traveler might need. In addition to a great apartment, there's a very large, well lit parking lot. Perfect!

We had 8 family members up for our son's graduation from Syracuse University and Amy's place was perfect for us. Plenty of space, clean and neat, VERY comfortable beds, all linens and towels included. Came in on a cold, rainy Friday afternoon and were very appreciative of her gas fireplace that quickly warmed the condo. Also liked that there were individual heat settings for each bedroom for everyone's individual tastes. Kitchen had everything we needed. Bathrooms were clean and updated. Highly recommend!

this is a great place to stay for any occasion. super convenient and comfortable. excellent host. Would definitely recommend!

Lori was amazing at communicating with us about some issues we had leading up to our visit. We had a wonderful time and enjoyed every minute of our stay!
