Great spot, despite issues
Overall, this was the perfect spot for our visit. We were hosting a family get-together even though we live out of state. It’s a great property for a large family, and in warmer weather the yard is wonderful for spreading out. However, the hosts apparently switched to a new housekeeping company, which didn’t deliver. All the beds were stripped and the linens were left wet in the dryer. The kitchen wasn’t properly prepared, either. The host was very responsive, and though there wasn’t anything they could do to fix it for us that night, their response was satisfactory. I would hope that a new contractor would be followed up with more thoroughly before having customers enter the property. Overall a great stay.

Family Reunion
Our reunion was in nearby Ithaca, but could have been held here in the large backyard. The house was obviously newly renovated.
Our stay was very comfortable.
