Modern Rustic- Private pond, hot tub, Waterfalls, State Parks, Hiking, Cornell

Enjoy your next Finger Lakes vacation at the Rustic Red Retreat! Located just outside of Ithaca, and a short drive to Cornell, this home is nestled next to a peaceful pond and provides modern amenities with rustic charm. The beautiful hand-hewn beams, reclaimed materials, and fireplace offer a warm, cozy stay after a busy day exploring the area. Enjoy numerous state parks, incredible waterfalls, wineries, breweries, restaurants, and all the seasonal events that the Finger Lakes have to offer!

Located along Cayuga Lake, this beautiful home boasts reclaimed materials throughout - Douglas Fir floors from the bleachers in the previous Ithaca College gymnasium. Hand-hewn barn beams from the late 1800s create a sense of life and warmth on the main floor and hand selected stones from the area were used to build a relaxing front porch. Feeling adventurous? Grab your soap and suds up under the stars in the outdoor shower!

The rustic red retreat is perfect for a romantic getaway or to enjoy with family and friends. The main floor features a half bath with laundry, a well-equipped cook-in kitchen, a dining area, and a lovely conversation space with a cozy gas-burning stove.

The second level sleeps 5 to 6 guests - two private bedrooms with three beds, an open loft/living space with a sleeper sofa, 65-inch smart T.V., and a full bath.

With iconic Taughannock Falls just 3 minutes away, we’ve provided a state park pass for guests to borrow allowing for free parking at any of the nearby state parks. The property also offers a new Weber gas grill, picnic table, Adirondack chairs, and a corn-hole game for guests to enjoy.

Notable nearby attractions include Taughannock Falls State Park, Buttermilk Falls State Park, Robert H. Treman State Park, and many other local parks including Cass Park and Stewart Park, and hiking the Black Diamond Trail.

Our home is located at the beginning of the Cayuga Lake wine trail with Bet the Farm Winery just 4 minutes away. Want to explore even more? Venture to downtown Ithaca and enjoy many local shops and restaurants just around the corner from the Ithaca Commons and minutes from the colleges. For those who prefer a quieter area with great restaurants and parks, drive just 4 miles to Trumansburg where you’ll find unique shops and local restaurants.

Wonderful place and hosts
Our family stayed while in town for a wedding nearby. We loved being so close to town and the venue. It was very peaceful and we enjoyed the outdoor space and hot tub. The girls enjoyed all the kids books and games. John and Brenda are wonderful welcoming hosts, quick to respond, and checked in to ensure our stay was going well. Definitely recommend!

Visit to our favorite getaway
This is a gem. The house is super cute and although we were familiar with the area John gave us a heads-up to things happening in the area and a new winery to try. It was a super cozy stay and we couldn't be more grateful for a relaxing trip away from NYC. Also, the proximity to the wine trail, Ithaca, and Taughannock Falls State Park made this rental a gem. We would stay here again in a heart beat.
