Backyard Waterfall and Cayuga Lake Views!
9.6 out of 10, Exceptional, (45)
"Came for 3 days to visit Cornell with my daughter and this home was perfect. Small, yet not lacking anything, rustic but lacking none of the modern tech. The backyard waterful, fire pit and views are worth the stay alone. Would definitely stay again."
