The place has a hippie/bohemian vibe, but so does all of Ithaca. Diane, the Inn keeper is an authentic, one of a kind bohemian in the best way possible. She goes out of her way to make you feel at home and welcome. My husband(a self proclaimed square, conservative) was enamored with her. She took a lot of time to give us really excellent recommendations for restaurants and hikes. We just loved her and the place. We had the most beautiful veranda view of the lake and the sunset. We will definitely be back!

Little tricky to find (we stayed at the private house, not main location) I would stay at the main house (better decor and newer) than the private house. Would go back again- because that's what matters. BUT- we stayed at the Aurora Inn last year (20 minutes up the road) and prefer there, but it's about double the price.

Breakfast offerings change daily and she uses the freshest ingredients; I'm super picky and every option sounded scrumptious. It was hard to choose just one! HIGHLY recommend the Gazebo room; it is a standalone room situated towards the back of the property and is very private and romantic. The decor is simple, yet elegant. It includes an oversized jet tub, spacious bedroom and bathroom and mini fridge. There is also a fireplace in the room and is stocked with lavender toiletries. My boyfriend and I appreciated the attention to detail in this room. We will absolutely be back! Madeline and Ken were happy to recommend activities and restaurants as well. There is a lot to do in the area and I cannot wait to visit in the fall. Parking off-street, wi-fi, delicious cookies and juice served in the evenings, beautiful grounds and the list goes on. You will NOT be disappointed with this lovely bed and breakfast.

Though I did a last minute booking, she gave us three rooms to choose from. We had a great time. It's so peaceful here. If you are one of those people who needs Hilton or Hyatt welcoming and all luxury that 5 star boring hotels offer, you probably should not be staying here. However, if you are looking for a quiet, peaceful, warm, romantic place to stay-you will feel yourself home. And her awesome family style breakfast on a lovely patio with astonishing views of the Lake will make your stay even more romantic. We also enjoyed her hot tube on a chilly evening after spending an evening in Ithaca. Thank you Diana!

DO NOT STAY HERE. Visit trip adviser for full review…read more Much of our time was spent outside of the Airbnb, as the temperature indoors was too hot midday. Over 24 hours after our arrival, we still had not been provided with a garbage bag or can. When we complained to Diane about the service and accommodations she said "you should be grateful for the gift you received". She also asked us if we'd like to just leave, without a refund. We told her we would be staying, that we were still unhappy, and that we still needed that garbage bag. She also told us that we would need to clean the kitchen before we left, the kitchen that was dirty when we arrived. I let her know that all of the dishes had been present upon arrival. She had the nerve to call the kitchen "well used" in her review of us. That kitchen was dirty, but it was in that state when we arrived and I would be leaving it as I had found it. We ate every meal out, nothing was prepared in that kitchen. As the weekend went on, we were in need of additional toilet paper. Cumulatively, we had received 1 roll for 5 women, with a Friday through Monday stay. I sent Diane a message requesting toilet paper at 9AM and again at 3:45PM. Sometime after 4PM she replied, letting us know that additional toilet paper could be found in the room connected to the first small room. We used a butterknife to pop the eye and hook lock on that door, as this is the door that only locked from the outside and we didn't have access to. On our last evening there, we returned to the Villa around 10PM. Upon entering, the smell of dirty dog was pungent. No dogs had been seen. We made our way to bed. At 3AM we were woken up by the sounds of the voices of other guests. These guests were utilizing the common room located just outside our divider, they were also using every single light in the room. Much to my dismay, my shutter door doesn't really block light or sound, so I laid awake in my bed made of wicker. The guests returned to their rooms around 4:30AM. At 6AM we were woken up again, this time by the barks of the dirty dog in the room at the end of the hall. In summary, we were duped. We spent $1,750 for 3-nights at this location. $250 of that was a cleaning fee, something surely not happening at the Cayuga Lake Inn. We were treated like garbage and made to feel unwelcome. I will never recommend this location to a single person I know. I have no doubts that this used to be a beautiful location, but it is horribly maintained. Diane's knick-knacks and open books line every surface in the rooms. You can write messages in the layers of dust on the tables. If you're reading this Diane, your common room table says "Hi, Diane!" I'd love for you to go check. Wipe it while you're there, you can use the paper towels we brought from home. Stay away from the Cayuga Lake Inn. Beware of outdated positive reviews. There is no one working at this location except Diane, and she sucks.

I'd rather have a Jimmy Dean breakfast sandwich than the rubbery eggs at most hotels, and the clementines were perfectly ripe.

The beds were comfortable, but what i did not like was the stained couches.

They have one waffle station, bagels, bread, water, coffee, pre package donuts, apples, yogurt, and egg and cheese sandwich that you have to warm up. This place is convenient if you are going to explore the outdoors of ithaca all day, and just need a place to sleep.

Despite being so close to Collegetown, we felt like we were a million miles away -- everything was truly perfect and it was so hard leaving! This house is ENORMOUS - if I'm not mistaken there are 8 bedrooms, four of which have bathrooms ensuite which was perfect for our coupled off friends. The house is unbelievably charming -- a super old Victorian, but everything was in great working condition, the house was spotless (especially the beds + bedding which was pristine). We were able to cook in one night with all of the kitchenware which was so lovely, and ate out the other nights. This house is in PERFECT location for walking to both Ctown and the commons -- we even walked to the farmers market on Sunday. There is no lacking of outdoor seating - there's a front porch, a side screened in porch, and an unreal tiny deck overlooking the gorge, which is where I started each morning listening to the sound of rushing water. It was actual heaven. Pat and Shannon were wonderful and helpful and we can't wait to come back and stay here!

We stayed 4 nights and all three of the front desk staff we interacted with were either rude or, at best, unfriendly.

The employee informed us that housekeeping was long gone and he was not interested/willing to help us with the supplies we needed. When I asked when someone else might help me he said he had no idea. Frustrating. If this were a 2 star hotel I would understand. But we paid $300/night and the service was far far below what we expect from a 4-star Hilton.
