Located in rural Ithaca, 12 min south of Ithaca Commons, Tenwood Lodge Family Retreat is perfect for your family reunion or friends gathering. Come home to Tenwood Lodge!
PS: We've been on VRBO since May 2014, but we were listed with a different manager for the past 4 years so you may not see our latest (excellent) reviews.
Built to connect you with nature, the views from inside in multiple common areas or the 6 bedrooms are great--you will likely see deer, wild turkey and lots of other. Sit and relax on the porch in the morning with a cup of locally roasted coffee (our gift to you) or in the afternoon with a glass of locally produced Finger Lakes wine you picked up on the wine trail.
We offer a time away from it all to be with those that matter most: Family, friends, yourself! Family Reunions and Celebrations are our favorite things (no weddings here, but you may stay here as family or friends of the wedding party)
Commencements and holidays are priced higher: Ithaca College and Cornell Commencements offer a special event reason for a family reunion. We have priced Commencements higher--but it's still a value vs hotels (who double and triple their prices) on those weekends.
Enjoy scenic views from lots of windows, a great room, a large dining room and huge gourmet kitchen. Relax with a glass of wine or wake up with a cup of coffee on one of three sitting decks. Whitetail deer, wild turkey, rabbits and chipmunks are likely to wander through our property while you are here. Coyotes often serenade us at night.
Three of the six bedrooms have gorgeous vaulted knotty pine ceilings which match the great room (Trophy Room). Another one, the Master Bedroom Suite, has a lovely ensuite bathroom featuring a Sanijet (tm) spa tub for two.
Brace yourself, the owner has a collection of lovely taxidermy in the Trophy Room. Also there is only one TV in the main living space, a Roku TV with a DVD player available. Cell service (Verizon/AT&T) should work fine here, unlimited wifi internet is available.
Tenwood Lodge has 6 Bedrooms and 3 full and 2 half baths. Three of the bedrooms have one Queen bed, another has a combination of King and bunked twins so younger ones can sleep near parents or cousins can have a continuous slumber party. Attached to the main house, the Bunkhouse wing has the 5th and 6th bedrooms - 1 with King Bed, other with 2 twins and a lofted full size bed. The Bunkhouse includes 1 Full Bath and a first floor family room/den equipped with a Queen futon a desk and a table for puzzles, crafts, etc.
Our Vacation Rental is great for family gatherings and reunions, retreats, families in town attending weddings, and college commencements and reunions, we've had all of them! (Please note: we are not a wedding venue, but can recommend several or be a homey base camp for attending area weddings, either as guests or family of the couple.)
Tenwood Lodge has been making memories with Vrbo guests since May 2014.
