Perfect Location

We enjoyed the location which was close to several parks and waterfalls. We also enjoyed seeing the wildlife - deer, rabbits and chipmunks. It felt like a home away from home where we could relax after a hectic day visiting family and friends in the area.

Lovely & cozy home

Everything about this house was great! The house was clean, comfortable & nicely furnished. Location is just 10 min from downtown Ithaca (many good restaurants & shops) & nearby hiking trails. Our dog also loved exploring the large front & backyard (including a fire pit & grill)…we had a fantastic stay & would definitely rent this property again.

Fall getaway

We set out for a laid back long weekend and that’s what we got. The fall colors cooperated, we hiked , visited the Farmers market and had great food and cocktails. The house allowed us to be close to things but also out away from the hustle of the main city.

Lovely Country retreat

Cozy, very clean and comfortable house and lovely country property. The large outdoor space was perfect for kids and included a fire pit for roasting marshmallows (with all the ingredients generously supplied by host). Nice outdoor table plus Adirondack chairs around the fire pit provided plenty of space and seating for enjoying the outdoors.

About the host

Hosted by Kristina Harrison

Host profile image
Our family of 4 plus our crazy pup are avid hikers and trail runners here in Ithaca, NY. We love to explore new trails and continue to be amazed at how beautiful Ithaca is. Gunderman Farm is located just a few minutes from the famous Finger Lakes Trail, Buttermilk Falls and Treman State Park. We have amazing restaurants that are short drive to town. Ithaca is Gorges! My husband and I live 5 minutes away and are available as needed.

Why they chose this property

We are close enough for a short trip to town but far enough away to relax without the stress of the city. Our property is located on 4 acres with farmlands directly across the street. Enjoy the magnificent night sky as you sit around the fire pit and catch one of our magnificent sunsets.

What makes this property unique

Guests have access to the whole house with the exception of the garage. We have a washer/dryer in the basement of the house that is available for use.

The house is on well water, which is completely safe to drink. Because of the natural minerals in the area, you may notice a light sulfur smell at times. This is quite common with wells in this region and is simply a natural characteristic of the water.
